The impact of jealousy remains harmful to relationships for instance jealousy leads to actions that are uncontrollable and irreversible. Jealousy is comparable to a monster or cancer--strong, hateful, and aggressive. Iago expresses his anger towards Othello for choosing Cassio, which does not have the experience that Iago has, thus, making Iago further qualified for the position of Lieutenant:
One Michael Cassio, a Florentine, A fellow almost damned in a fair wife, that never set a squadron in the field, Nor the division of battle knows, More spinister unless the bookish theorick, wherein the tongued consuls can propose, as masterly as he.

Throughout time, the devastation caused by jealousy in society has gone unchanged. The amount of manipulation and tragic deaths by the actions powered by jealousy continues to increase and self-confidence in people is decreasing. People feeling low self-esteem allows doubt in others more easily. Jealousy can have the same effect as cancer on the body clouding one’s thoughts and violently moving through the body. Jealousy continues to ruin relationships, turning people into criminals, and in a sense paralyzing a person’s mind it also relics a strong emotion that causes a person to feel a low self-esteem, greed, selfishness, envy, and a negative outlook on situations. Jealousy leads to irrational actions such as manipulating others to cause pain and anguish in their lives, which is the emotions Iago feels because of the resentment towards Othello for choosing Cassio as Lieutenant.
