Dear Mr. Sathyaish,
I saw your posting today, almost after a year.
"Good name in man and woman, dear my lord, Is the immediate jewel of their souls: Who steals my purse steals trash; 'tis something, nothing; 'Twas mine, 'tis his, and has been slave to thousands; But he that filches from me my good name Robs me of that which not enriches him And makes me poor indeed."
Wonderful verses extolling the importance of fame over money. Thanks for the lovely post. This adds to my Shakespeare collection! I also posted a different quote from Othello. Hope you had seen it. In the pursuit of taking Shakespeare to all our readers, to date, I have made ten postings in two months. I hope to continue the same in the wake of good support.

Thank you, Mr. Raghunathan. I'm glad to know that you're a Shakespeare reader, too. I hope you listened to the audio as well. It has a line-by-line explanation of this verse. You may download the mp3 file or listen online. There's a link to download the mp3 file on that page.
I just saw your posts on Shakespeare. You seem to have covered the entire canon. :-)
