    One you'll definitely need is "I am not what I am" as it shows his two faced nature.

    "By Janus I think no"

    'Oh you are well tun'd now but I'll lay down the pegs to make this music. As honest as I am.'

    'Mere prattle without practice' (about Cassio)

    'I follow him to serve my turn upon him'

    'Even now very now an old black ram is tupping your white ewe'

    'Your daughter and the moor are now making the beast with two backs'

    'Ha I like not that'

    Also for Irony, Emilia to Desdemona- "...jealousy, born in itself, begot on itself." (I think, must check it up)

    Good phrase in that essay I must remember - "Iago uses the cloak of honesty as his guise". Nice one :pac:
