In Shakespeare’s Twelfth Night most of the character’s actions and thoughts are motivated through love. In modern and past society love is viewed as a gift or blessing‚ but in this case love is the main cause of suffering and characters that do fall in love are most of the time misguided and acts of cruelty either fall on them or they cause them. Straight from the beginning Orsino is manipulated with love for Olivia. His obsession over her causes him to refuse to go hunting or any other activity
