1. in act ii, when malvolio says, "all is fortune," he means that everything that happens to a character is based on circumstances that are out of the character's control. to what extent is malvolio correct? in twelfth night, do the characters' fates depend more on outside circumstances or on their own traits and choices? give examples from the text to support your answer. text-the twelth night

On Act II we see Viola asking where she currently was and then she finds out that her twin brother was in another country. The dialogue below shows how nobody there could control what happened (or would happen) to her brother, leaving that for his own fate to decide:

VIOLA

And what should I do in Illyria?

My brother he is in Elysium.

Perchance he is not drown'd: what think you, sailors?

Captain

It is perchance that you yourself were saved.

VIOLA

O my poor brother! and so perchance may he be.

After the shipwreck, Viola ended up in a country named Illyria, while her brother was in a country named Elysium. They didn’t control what led them to this separation (the shipwreck itself), they couldn’t control who survived (and who didn’t) nor their location after the accident. That said, we can support Malvolio’s idea of the character’s fates depending more on external circumstances than their own traits and choices.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
