Iago is in virtually every scene in the play‚ and has his hands in almost all doings within the play. Iago is truly one of the greatest villans in literature.

Iago plays all the characters in the play like puppets. He

    In the novel “The Devil and Miss Prym‚” it is stated that “Good and Evil have the same face; it all depends on when they cross the path of each individual human being.” This is true to some extent‚ but not in the way the author intends it. I maintain‚ from my experiences in the real world and from the book‚ that the concepts of good and evil do not necessarily have the same face‚ but good and evil people will certainly look the same as any other person. When evil crosses the path of the truly righteous
