blood

I would say that the most important theme in this book is blood. It is a main point in the book. People die all the time, and the scenes can be very bloody. The main character has a beginning when he fights the the enemy and kills lots of people when we don't see this as a big problem. Then when he starts to solo out people and the scenes become more bloody he then starts to be affected. So the more blood makes the main character feel the worst.

Also blood is very prominent for other characters too. Lady Macbeth has a scene when she is trying to wipe the blood off of her hand which is a very vivid scene. The movie scene in the play is a very good explanation of this. The scene is vivid and a great scene to explain what Shakespeare is trying to say.

Come, you spirits
That tend on mortal thoughts, unsex me here,
And fill me from the crown to the toe top-full
Of direst cruelty!- Lady Macbeth

This quotation is during the part where Lady Macbeth is basically saying that Macbeth is not being a man and trying to kill Duncan. She says she wants to be the man in this and not have any nice feminine parts or actions and be filled with cruelty and meanness. This part really shows the true character of Lady Macbeth. 

Let not light see my black and deep desires- Macbeth

This part is all about Macbeth having to deal with the morality issue of killing king Duncan. He doesn't want the perfect and pure light of the stars to see this evil and terrible craving to become king through killing king Duncan. He wants this to happen with no moral or physical consequences
