Green-eyed monster
Posted by Adam King on March 01, 2003
It says in the Shakespeare list on this site that Iago's quote "The Green-eyed monster that doth mock the meat it feeds on" is referring to the way cats play with mice before killing them. Can this be right? Surely it's just a metaphor for the way jealousy operates and nothing to do with cats?
