If music be the food of love, play on. Orsino begins lovesick for the sound of his own longing, and the comedy never quite stops being about people in love with feelings rather than with people.

If music be the food of love, play on, / Give me excess of it; that, surfeiting, / The appetite may sicken and so die.
Twelfth Night, William Shakespeare
