Iago's speech 310-360. What is his philosophy to life? Give evidence. Do you agree? Yes?Why not?

Iago's philosophy to life is no morality as he thinks it is 'a fig'. He also doesn't believe in love, only lust and passion that your will has allowed free rein. 'A permission of the will' (line 334-335). Iago's philosophy is also to better yourself in life and show people a disguise and not the real you. 'Put money in thy purse' (line 341). 'Defeat thy favour with an usurped beard' (line 340). He also thinks the bad of everyone as he encourages Roderigo to have sex 'enjoy' (line 357) with Desdemona rather than commit suicide. I don't agree with this because it seems iago doesn't trust no one so he must be a lonely man with no one to love. He also enjoys money but money can't buy you happiness.
