This question asks us to match famous quotes written by William Shakespeare (listed in List I) with the plays they originate from (listed in List II). Let's break down each match step-by-step:

1. Quote A: "Some are born great, others achieve greatness."
This famous quote is spoken by Malvolio as he reads a letter in Shakespeare's comedy play Twelfth Night (Act II, Scene V). Therefore, A matches with IV.

2. Quote B: "Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind, And therefore is winged Cupid painted blind"
This quote is spoken by Helena in A Midsummer Night's Dream (Act I, Scene I), reflecting on the nature of love and infatuation. Therefore, B matches with III.

3. Quote C: "Ill deeds is doubled with an evil word"
This line is spoken by Luciana in the play The Comedy of Errors (Act III, Scene II), suggesting that committing a bad action is made twice as bad when defended or accompanied by deceitful words. Therefore, C matches with II.

4. Quote D: "We are such stuff as dreams are made on, and our little life is rounded with a sleep."
This iconic philosophical quote is spoken by Prospero in The Tempest (Act IV, Scene I), musing on the fleeting nature of life and reality. Therefore, D matches with I.

Combining all the individual matches, we get:
A-IV, B-III, C-II, D-I
