There are two main ideas that I got fro reading this play. The first main idea is guilt. Guilt is portrayed throughout the book especially through Lady Macbeth. One example of that is her sleepwalking disorder. This is caused by her thoughts of when she was an accomplice in the killing of Duncan. She also continues to wash her hands because of the thought of Duncan's blood being on her hands.
The second main idea is the quest for power. This idea is portrayed through the character Macbeth. He shows us that in order for him to become king he will do anything. Even if it means killing someone or lying he will never stop trying to become the king.

Quote
"Fair is foul and foul is fair"This quote is a quote that contradicts itself. It is very confusing because it is saying the things is the opposite of itself. It is saying what is good appears bad and what is bad appears good. This quote is important to the story because of what it foreshadows.
This quote is foreshadowing the characters in the play. It is foreshadowing that the characters that seem to be good at the beginning will later become wicked and harmful. An example of this is Macbeth because of all the people he kills in order to become king.
