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.

Spring Break
My spring break was full of fun times of baseball and the beach. The beginning of my spring break was going to my family's condo in Destin, Florida. In Destin, we fished in a cobia fishing tournament. This tournament was for the wounded warrior project. Even though we did not catch any cobia we met some awesome wounded soldiers and really got to know their stories.
The second part of my spring break was full of baseball practices and games. The highlight of the baseball part of my break was that we beat DUNHAM!! Despite losing to them one time that week, we won the second game 6-5. My break was full of many exciting events that were very fun and action- packed.

Quotes
"If something is destined to happen, it will happen without your interference."
This quote I agree but I also disagree with this statement. I agree because God has a plan for all of our lives. I disagree because in order for God's plan to be fulfilled you must work your hardest and persevere to achieve your ultimate life goal.
"If you are in a position of power, you are happy."
I disagree with this statement because power comes with a lot of stress. Everyone who you have power above is looking up to you because of this ultimate status. Everyone longs for this achievement but when they have reached it they sometimes find it harsh and full of bad things.
