Merchant of Venice: Quote

"O, what a goodly outside falsehood hath!" (1.3.110) I enjoyed this quote for two reasons: it was thought provoking and wise. This quote reinforces the idea that people are not always what they seem. It suggests that physical characteristics are misleading when identifying one's personality. It suggests that people should look beyond what they see, to search for the person on the inside. For this reason, it is also very wise.
