Macbeth (3)

Nik musaini nik mustapha

Macbeth is an ambitious man with a small heart. He is a typical male who has a big dream but to afraid to take action and reach the dream. According to his wife, Lady Macbeth, her husband is ambitious, but he is also too "kind" to do what it takes to murder Duncan. This can be proving by this line:

Glamis thou art, and Cawdor; and shalt be
What thou art promised: yet do I fear thy nature;
It is too full o' the milk of human kindness
To catch the nearest way: thou wouldst be great;
Art not without ambition, but without
The illness should attend it

He is a man who needs to be push to get something. In this case, a husband who need to be push by his wife. His character undergoes a drastic change. Before Macbeth hears the witches' first prophecy, he is very close to Duncan. When the thought of murdering Duncan crosses his mind immediately after he finds that he has just been named Thane of Cawdor Macbeth's personality begins to change. At first he doesn't want to murder Duncan, but with the helpful persuasion of his overly ambitious wife, Macbeth agrees to kill Duncan. And this lead to more murder that he commits. Personally, I don’t really like Macbeth because I think of him as a man with no stand.
