Casio: I will rather sue to be despised than to deceive so
good a commander with so slight, so drunken and so in-
discreet and officer. Drunk! and speak parrot! and squab-
ble, swagger, swear, and discourse fustian with one's own
shadow! O thou invisible spirit of wine! if thou hast no
name to be known by, let us call thee devil!
...
I remember a mass of things, but nothing dis-
tinctly; a quarrel, but nothing wherefore. O God! That
men should put an enemy in their mouths to steal away
their brains; that we should, with joy, pleasance, revel,
and applause, transform ourselves into beasts.
...
It hath pleased the devil drunkness to give place
to the devil wrath; one unperfectness shows me another,
to make me frankly despise myself.
Othello, the Moor of Venice, Act 2, Scene 3
