5/5

I think and important quote for acts I-III is "My hands are of your color but I shame to wear a heart so white" basically summing up the acts I-III because it is Lady Macbeth is talking about how killing Duncan is so bad that she feels bad that Macbeth had to do it and his heart is black. She wishes he didn't have to deal with that morally is so bad.

The quote literally is talking about how Macbeth has a black heart for doing such a terrible deed. Though she didn't kill him she still has blood on her hands for getting blood on the guards items. When they kill him everything goes backwards and that is just showing how bad what they're doing is
In the beginning of the book you said there would be a big idea of the story is fair is foul and foul is fair. This is said by the witches at the beginning of the play and this saying is a theme of the whole play. The witches say this mostly when they are doing chants and making spells so the meaning is obviously very involved with the witches and they are aware of meaning.

I believe this is the biggest idea surrounding the book because though the witches are not in every scene the witches are the whole reason the story is happening. What they said "Fair is foul and foul is fair" is basically showing what a normal man would think is foul is what the witches think and vice versa. Most people thought the killing he was soing is foul but not to the witches who told him to do it.

Free Post

My break was a real bummer. My fiend Garrett and I had planned ongoing to the beach in Destin, FL for spring break. We planned on bringing two more people that go by the names of William White and David Tatman. We were going to stay in a condo that Garrett's parents got for free from their work. We were quite excited to go, but the only problem was that we would only be able to go for 3 days. Right before the break they decided that it would just be better not to go.

There is a good side to this story as a matter of fact. Even though his parents said we could not go after the break they said we could go after school ends. This will be better because there was a slight chance that our friends couldn't come due to their baseball practices interfering with the dates. Now it will all work out for everyone to go.

"If you are in a position of power, you are happy" I disagree with this because most of the time people with power aren't very happy. Sure having power over certain people can make you happy and make you feel respected. The problem is that when you have power it comes with a lot of responsibility. This becomes a problem because when the people you have power over aren't good it becomes your fault.This is what generally happens to a lot of people

"Everyone is capable of lying, betrayal, and violence, which are basic parts of human nature." I completely agree with this statement because this is a statement that goes to what humans are. At their core all humans want to do is survive. When we were neanderthals they did almost anything to get what they wanted. Whether this was stealing from another, betraying another for his life. Violence is different because violence is life. Violence is blood and gore what you could view as our lifeline. Its strange that the fact that violence is censored because it's life in a sense.

Explaining my topic to a friend

My mom already knew much about the topic because she remembers hearing about it on TV when she was younger. I think the topic was very interesting when I first heard about it. It seemed interesting learning about it from what I had heard such as the explosions and such. I didn't know much about it in the first place but the more I learn the better it seems.

My topic was fairly interesting when I first heard about it. At first I didn't know how to appropriately use it accordingly with my guidlines. The areas in which I explored were very interesting. I didn't have much experience on the topic at first but the more I researched the better I was able to connect it to my thesis and find my topic more interesting
