          Another of his fathom they have none
            To lead their business; in which regard,
              Though I do hate him as I do hell-pains,
                Yet, for necessity of present life,
                  I must show out a flag and sign of love,
                    Which is indeed but sign.

          In compliment extern, 'tis not long after
            But I will wear my heart upon my sleeve
              For daws to peck at; I am not what I am.
      - Othello the Moor of Venice (Iago at I, i)
        [Heart]

In honest plainness thou hast heard me say
  My daughter is not for thee; and now, in madness,
    Being full of supper and distemp'ring draughts,
      Upon malicious knavery does thou come
        To start my quiet.
      - Othello the Moor of Venice
