Malvolio: ...and yet to crush it a little, it would bow to me... (II.v.143-145)
Malvolio muct change the MOAI to MAOI in the "letter" that "olivia leaves for him". He basically needs to bend the letter to his will to make it actually fit him therefore making him Olivia's love. Because he wants Olivia so badly he overlooks and ignore reality and tries to bend situations and read into things more than he needs to
I also think that this statement could be applied to Toby Belch and Sir Andrew. Malvolio cannot stand either of them and if he were to marry Olivia, he would be of a higher status and therefore be in charge of them instead of vice versa. He would be able to crush them a little so that they would bow to him.
