Othello

"It is silliness to live when live is torment; and then have we a precription to die when death is our physican" (1.3.302-305)

I feel like this passage foreshadows someone choosing to death over life. For some life is just to much for them to handle so they choose the easiest path out which is, death. Death suits the people has lost all hope, those has no more options, or those in the dark. This also desmonstraste the choices the character will have to make and what the end result will be like. For example Roderigo he is madly inlove with Desdemona and he knews he can not have her because she is already married to an other man. Is he going to have death as is physian or would he choose another path.

Will Roderigo some day separate himsel from Iago?
(because Iago has a bad influence on him)
