Wow is the world that put in thine
Wretched mortals' hands the power to
Give Shakespeare's Macbeth a three point nine

What! 3.9 for the Greatest Playwright!

I won't dwell much on what Macbeth is about
We all know the story
But I will put these questions before you

1- if you love UNCONDITIONALLY, how far would you go for your beloved? Would you break your values? Change who you are for them?
If not, is it UNCONDITIONAL love in this case??

2- The witches gave Macbeth two prophecies at first, one happened because of his loyalty, bravery and valor So, if he hadn't done what he had done, would he still become king? Isn't it his impatient flaw that led him to his doom?

3- if you are a good person at heart, but you commit an evil act, does this make you evil? Could you be redeemed somehow? Or are you doomed to be evil hence forth?

I love the questions Macbeth poses to our humanity and philosophy
