All hail, Macbeth, that shalt be king hereafter!
MACBETH at The Donmar Warehouse (x)
I’ve honestly never read the Macbeth but with these testimonies I’m adding it to my library.😂
macbeth is shakespeare’s funniest tragedy and mr. macbeth is the funniest character in macbeth. he listens to these creepy old women tell him he’s gonna be king and IMMEDIATELY decides the only thing he can POSSIBLY do is kill a guy and then he waffles about it for a full act and finally comes to the conclusion that it’s morally wrong and then HE DOES IT ANYWAY and his entire fucking life falls apart with an inevitability that is genuinely hilarious
Y'all can keep at it with that “Romeo and Juliet fell in love in five days how immature” shiz but Macbeth went from no murder to yes murder in like one afternoon and I feel like one of those is a significantly bigger problem than the other
Present fears are less than horrible imaginings.
Your face, my Thane, is like a book where anyone can read strange matters.
To fool the time, look like the time.
His virtues plead like angels against his murder.
Lady Macbeth: What about your hopes for the future? Are you afraid to be the same in your act as you are in your desire? Would you live as a coward like the cat who wanted the fish but was afraid to get its paws wet? Macbeth: I beg you, be quiet! I dare do all that may become a man.
Away, and mock the time with the fairest show.
False face must hide what false heart does know.
That which made them drunk has made me bold.
I heard the owl scream and the crickets cry.
The sleeping and the dead are but pictures.
Neither tongue nor heart can imagine it!
Lady Macbeth: (her hand to her nose) Here's the smell of the blood still. (sighing) All the perfumes of Arabia will not sweeten this little hand.
Macbeth: Of all the men here, I have avoided you. Get back, back! My soul is too heavy with your blood already. Macduff: I have no words. My voice is in my sword. You are a bloodier villain than words can describe!
