    My first impression of Iago is that he’s a manipulative and hypocritical man who tries to make up for the lack of success and happiness in his life by destroying that of others.

He claims to be taking this money to buy extravagant gifts to woo Desdemona on Roderigo’s behalf‚ but he keeps the money for himself. “Iago‚ who hast had [Roderigo’s] purse/ As if the strings were [his]”

    Be interested‚ not interesting. This turn of words is very powerful. Often making a great first impression is equated with impressing people. While that is true‚ most think about impressing people as being about showing what we know‚ who we know or what we’ve done.
