Macbeth, Lesson 2, Thought Question 3: "Boy am I brave!"

In Act 2, Scene 2, Lady Macbeth says "That which hath made them [king Duncan's guards] drunk hath made me bold. What hath quenched them hath given me fire.". What she was saying there was that the liquor that she had given Duncan's guards has made her bold. But right after that an owl screeches and frightens her out of her wits. This confirms Macbeth's earlier statement that God's justice brings the poisoned chalice to our lips, the bad things we do to others come back and do just a much damage to us, if not more. This was an early sign of Lady Macbeth's oncoming madness, and judgement.        

Macbeth, Lesson One Thought Question Five, Concerning Witches

The First Witch was talking about how a women's, perhaps herself, sailor husband had left to go on a sea voyage and how she was going to curse him with all sorts of dreadful things. The events the Witch describes are much alike to the later events in the play, and Macbeth much like the man described by the Witch. Macbeth was cursed to "...waste away in agony." and never to "...catch a wink of sleep, either at night or during the day." One can almost pity Macbeth's situation, for he was a good man, done in by the tricks of the devil and by his own ambition.
