Iago's capacity for cruelty seems limitless, and no motivation for his actions seems enough to explain the incredible destruction he wreaks on the lives of the people he knows best. Is Iago pure evil?
IAGO
Evil has nowhere been portrayed with such mastery as in the character of Iago.
IAGO
Iago is a being who hates good simply because it is good, and loves evil purely for itself. His motives spring from a 'motiveless malignancy', or a disinterested delight in the pain of others. Othello, Desdemona and Cassio are scarcely more than the material requisite for the full attainment of this delight.
