1.41-42). Also, his speech was almost poetic in the way he described natural imagery, "let the laboring back climb hills of seas/Olympus-high" (2.1.184-185). However, this shifts to coarse, animal language, "I'd rather be a toad/ And live upon the vapour of dungeon" (3.3.275-276). This technique of the characterization of Othello, exposed in his language reveals the memorable idea of the nature of humanity and how easily one can self destruct them self. To the point where people, such as Lodovico, were questioning, "Is this the noble Moorwhom passion could not shake?" (4.1.264-266). Shakespeare seems to show the power of human nature, as Othello angrily states, "I will chop her into messes!" presenting violent and bloody imagery of his once "soul's joy" (4.1.195). Also, it is often the nature of humanity to easily give up and to only be able to focus one emotion, "Farewell the tranquil mind," it is as though he has given in, allowing for his emotions to drive his actions (3.3.352). This becomes his fatal mistake as from this point onwards Othello is unable to see anything except the betrayal and hate. His once love served as the bases to which once turned into a destructive passion, proving to be stronger than any reasoning. Thus, Othello, ultimately in the end, suffocates Desdemona, doing the worst, as he convinces himself, "she must die, else she'll betray more men," as Shakespeare, portrays the destruction of human nature, through the use of dramatic action (5.2.6). .
