    William Shakespeare
    “O, beware, my lord, of jealousy;
    It is the green-ey'd monster, which doth mock
    The meat it feeds on. That cuckold lives in bliss,
    Who, certain of his fate, loves not his wronger:
    But O, what damnèd minutes tells he o'er
    Who dotes, yet doubts, suspects, yet strongly loves!”
    ― William Shakespeare, Othello
