OLIVIA: Take the Fool away.
FESTE: Do you not hear, fellows? Take away the Lady…
FESTE: Good madonna, why mournest thou?
OLIVIA: Good fool, for my brother’s death.
FESTE: I think his soul is in hell, madonna.
OLIVIA: I know his soul is in heaven, Fool.
FESTE: The more fool, madonna, to mourn for your brother’s soul, being in heaven. Take away the fool, gentlemen.
– William Shakespeare
Twelfth Night, Act 1, Scene 5. Feste may play the role of court fool. But he has enough awareness to see the foolishness of his mistress Lady Olivia’s seven years of mourning for a brother who is in a better place.
