Murder, Power, Regrets
greed, is a very compelling emotion, it is so much compelling that it forces hands of many, even stubborn hands it makes no effort to move or dislodge. it forces people to construct and act out there deep and most hidden desires. lady Macbeth is a naturally sly and manipulative character, who with her charm, finds it easy to compel Macbeth to murder. Lady Macbeth is able to devise a plan and make the deed sound realistic. she finally decided to act upon her own desires and not commit to her own vows of leading the both of them for their best interest but instead she ruins that for macbeth and makes Macbeth lead her into places even tho it can cause Macbeths destruction. without the influence of Lady Macbeth, Macbeth would never have acted upon his own desires in order to obtain a position of supreme power.
Lady Macbeth easily influenced Macbeth's decision of murder for no greater purpose than fulfilling greedy desire. Lady Macbeth began by persisting and repeating over and over again that she wants Duncan to die by Macbeths hand. “Was the hope drunk?Wherein you dress'd yourself? Hath it slept since? And wakes it now, to look so green and pale. At what it did so freely? From this time Such I account thy love. Art thou afeard To be the same in thine own act and valour As thou art in desire? Wouldst thou have that Which thou esteem'st the ornament of life, And live a coward in thine own esteem, Letting "I dare not" wait upon "I would," Like the poor cat i' the adage?”(act 1 Scene 7 line 36) In saying so Lady macbeth lets it be known that she believes Macbeth should act on her desires. Its like saying a cat wants and enjoys eating fish but it is unwilling to actually dip its feet into the water to get it. which means that if Macbeth really wants to be ruler than he needs to do something about it instead of waiting. Lady Macbeth lets it known to him. Lady
