"I would, while it was smiling in my face.
Have plucked my nipple from his boneless gums.
And dashed the brains out, had I so sworn.
As you have done this.".

I find that this play evolves around different sorts of stages and the effects of each one. This kind of system is like a story having its different components; a beginning, middle and an end. The witches are the beginning, ambition the middle and death the end. In every negative circumstance Macbeth encounters, it results in two parts; death and victory. These two contrasting aspects of the play clash on numerous occasions especially involving Macbeth's victory. Except for one instance at the end: the battle with Macduff. Macduff does kill Macbeth, but in a sense Macbeth finally wins the battle of his soul. The only way he could gain this particular victory was to die. Maybe Macbeth was meant to die a "good man" and this was life's way of showing him that. As after listening to the witch's prophecies he doesn't have anything to follow but their own judgement. He loses all self-control and everything that goes with it, including his soul. So for the rest of the play Macbeth is trying to win back his soul as well as transforming into a bloody tyrant and causing complete destruction. The core of Macbeth's developing obsession branches off into different divisions especially in one of the witch's prophecies. (Act one scene 3.).

"All hail Macbeth, hail to thee, Thane of Glamis.
All hail Macbeth, hail to thee, Thane of Cawdor.
All hail Macbeth that shalt be king here after.".
Each one of these lines goes up in ascending order. They all help to build on the scale of ambition, which is needed to kill so many people in Macbeth's way. As well as this ever-growing tissue inside Macbeth's head, which in time clouds his judgement. Along with the witch's help Lady Macbeth portrays a cancerous tumour attacking a brain of goodwill intelligence and strong leadership.
