For I know thou ‘rt full of love and honesty,
And weigh’st thy words before thou givest them breath.
– William Shakespeare
Othello, Act 3, Scene 3. Othello believes that Iago’s words are full of honesty and love towards him. The irony is that the opposite is the case. While Iago does weigh his words carefully and puts on a show of affection and honesty, he is a very dishonest person and has an intense hatred for Othello.
