TWELFTH NIGHT

ACT I

"If music be the food of love, play on,
Give me excess of it, that, surfeiting,
The appetite may sicken, and so die."
- Orsino, Scene I
"Conceal me what I am, and be my aid
For such disguise as haply shall become
The form of my intent."
- Viola, Scene II
"I'll be sworn thou art.
Thy tongue, thy face, thy limbs, actions and spirit
Do give thee fivefold blazon. Not too fast; soft, soft,
Unless the master were the man."
- Olivia, Scene V
ACT II
"But come what may, I do adore thee so
That danger shall seem sport, and I will go."
- Antonio, Scene I

"...as he thinks, with excellencies that it is his gorunds of faith that all that look on him love him; and on that vice in him will my revenge find notable cause to work."
- Maria, Scene III
"It gives a very echo to the seat
Where Love is throned."
- Viola, Scene IV
ACT III
"This fellow is wise enough to play the fool,
And to do that well craves a kind of wit."
- Viola, Scene I
"I love thee so that, maugre all thy pride,
Nor wit nor reason can my passion hide."
- Olivia, Scene II

"I snatched one half out of the jaws of death;
Relieved him with such sanctity of love,
And to his image, which methought did promise
Most venerable worth, did I devotion."
- Antonio, Scene IV
ACT IV
"Nothing that is so is so."
- Feste, Scene I
"Then you are mad indeed, if you be
no better in your wits than a fool."
- Feste, Scene II
"That I am ready to distrust mine eyes
And wrangle with my reason that persuades me
To any other trust that I am mad,
Or else the lady's mad."
- Sebastian, Scene III
