Viola believes that her brother Sebastian had drowned since she washed up ashore by herself. She decides to work for Duke Orsino and they become good friends, which meant Duke Orsino trusted her, even though he thinks she is a man. He asked her to talk to Olivia, the women he loves, and to try and convince her to love him. Viola secretly loves Orsino and doesn't want to tell Olivia, but is forced to since she works for the Duke. If she does this, Orsino will give Viola all of his money and fortune, and also raise her class. Viola decided to tell Olivia about Duke 's love because she wanted to get his fortune. This was rare in those days, so it was very special. Viola can't tell Duke because she is portraying a man and is pretending to be a eunuch named Cesario. Viola is in love with Orsino but she is a "boy" so Orsino cannot love her/him back. Viola/Cesario visits Olivia to tell her Orsino loves her, but finds out Olivia does not love Orsino back.

After Viola leaves Olivia 's castle, Olivia tells her servant, Malvolio that she is in love with Cesario/Viola, but Cesario/Viola doesn't feel the same.

<span style="font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif;"> - This quote talks about Olivia and how Viola/Cesario tells Olivia that isn't what she appears. The irony is that Viola/Cesario is doing just that.

<span style="font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif;"> - Viola tells Olivia that she has one heart, and a woman will never win it, so Olivia thinks that Cesario(Viola) is gay.

<span style="font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif;"> The quote showing that is: <span style="font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px;">"By innocence I swear, and by my youth <span style="font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif;"> I have one heart, one bosom, and one truth, <span style="font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif;"> And that no woman has, nor never none <span style="font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif;"> Shall mistress be of it, save I alone."

<span style="font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif;"> "This guy’s wise enough to play the fool, and only clever people can do that. He pays attention to the mood and social rank of the person he’s joking with, and also to the time of day. And he doesn’t let go of his target when a distraction appears. His job requires as much effort and skill as any wise man’s occupation could. And he shows he’s very smart at playing the fool, while smart people look stupid when they play the fool."

<span style="font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif;"> "I warrant thou art a merry fellow and carest for nothing."

<span style="font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif;"> "This fellow is wise enough to play the fool, <span style="font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif;"> And to do that well craves a kind of wit. <span style="font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif;"> He must observe their mood on whom he jests, <span style="font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif;"> The quality of persons, and the time, <span style="font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif;"> And, like the haggard, check at every feather <span style="font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif;"> That comes before his eye. This is a practise <span style="font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif;"> As full of labor as a wise man’s art, <span style="font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif;"> For folly that he wisely shows is fit. <span style="font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif;"> But wise men, folly-fall'n, quite taint their wit."

<span style="font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif;"> "I prithee—and I’ll pay thee bounteously— <span style="font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif;"> Conceal me what I am, and be my aid <span style="font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif;"> For such disguise as haply shall become <span style="font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif;"> The form of my intent."
