One is free to create and manipulate not only the physical actions of a character, but the mental behavior as well. If my recollection serves me correct, aside from hypnosis, there is nowhere else that this is possible. In the cartoon world, "anything goes." There are no boundaries to which one is confined.

... first scene of the play, when Iago expresses his jealousy of Cassio. Iago is a non-commissioned officer who is experienced and ambitious. Instead of appointing Iago who had plenty of experience on the battlefield, Othello appoints "a great arithmetician, one Michael Cassio, a Florentine . . . that never set a squadron on the field" (1.1.19-22).

Iago only proves good at fighting, whereas Cassio has the tactical knowledge to effectively lead and win in battle. To make matters worse, Cassio is also a foreigner, from Florence, and he is of higher status and family ...

He said that in naming these objects, you would refrain from taking better care of one than the other or taking them for granted.

In the above quote, Lady Macbeth is commenting on her husband's lack of gall, stating, that quite frankly, she would make a better man than he. Although still a very strong woman, we see the first signs of weakness in Lady's Macbeth's character in Act II, Scene ii, 12-13. She says, “Had he not resembled/ My father as he slept ...
