"Then is he dead?"
In the beginning of the play, I pitied Macbeth for having to do many treacherous crimes towards everyone. As the play moved on, I realized that Macbeth was slowly starting to develop a large fear of someone going behind his back because he did the crimes. I'm going to be criticized quite a bit for this, but I think that if he really wanted to do this, I think he did a pretty good job of it. I mean, his wife, Lady Macbeth didn't do such a great job. I think that she killed herself because she was in guilt from doing all this and perhaps even past crimes. She freaked out pretty easily, if you ask me. Of course, I just want to say here that I don't think she would have committed suicide if she wasn't a female. I'm going to spark a lot of controversy, but it is so true. Many females have a tendency to be unable to control their feelings. I'm definitely giving credit to Macbeth for doing all these crimes, though. Not many people are willing to do so just so they can rule. Of course, the cost may not be as bad as it is today. If you killed someone incredibly important today, you would have a lot of people wanting to kill you and possibly the death penalty. If you killed someone just as important back then, you'd be reigning over land and have many people wanting to stab you to your death. If you ask me, I'd probably take the risk and reign because I'm not that scared of death. Of course, if the reward isn't as big as the cost, there would definitely be problems.
