Hi,
Should Macbeth have not have had enough will power to say no. He should have waited if he believed the witches prophecies. Why did he take actions into his own hands. ;D

Hi, Should Macbeth have not have had enough will power to say no. He should have waited if he believed the witches prophecies. Why did he take actions into his own hands. ;D BUT, after the thane of Glamis prophecy came true, Macbeth was convinced that the other prophecy would come true, but he saw no way possibly without taking matters into his own hands.

Hi, He already knew about Thane of Glamis when the witches spoke. When they predict Thane of Cawdor, it is beofre he has been executed and Macbeth seems to dismiss their ideas. However, when the news is delivered he starts to think about being King.

However, when the news is delivered he starts to think about being King. Woops, got my thanes wrong. But when Cawdor is predicted, and the prophecy becomes reality, then he believes he can become king, but sees this as being the only possibly way, no?
