  1. "Is this a dagger which I see before me, The handle towards my hand? Come let me clutch thee. I have thee not, and yet I see thee still. Art thou not, fatal vision, sensible to feeling as to sight? Or art thou but a dagger of the mind, a false creation proceeding from the heat-oppressed brain? I see thee yet, in form as palpable as this this which now i draw" (II.i.44). This quote is said by Macbeth, and he is talking to himself.

  3. "Thou losest labor.
    As easy mayst thou the intrenchant air
    With thy keen sword impress as make me bleed.
    Let fall thy blade on vulnerable crests;
    I bear a charmed life, which must not yield
    To one of woman born"(V.viii.185). This quote is said by Macbeth. He is speaking to Macduff.

  4. "I grant him bloody,
    Luxurious, avaricious, false, decietful,
    Sudden, malicious, smacking of every sin
    That has a name. But there's no bottom, none,
    In my voluptuousness. But there's no bottom, none,
    Your matrons, and your maids could not fill up
    The cistern of my lust, and my desire
    All continent impediments would o'erbear
    That did oppose my will. Better Macbeth
    That such an one to reign"(IV.iii.143). Malcolm said this to Macduff.

  5. "Good sir, why do you start and seem to fear
    Things that do sound so fair? I' th' name of truth,
    Are you fantastical, or that indeed
    Which outwardly you show? My noble partner
    You greet with present grace and great prediction
    Of noble having and royal hope,
    That seems rapt withal. To me you speak not.
    If you can look into the seeds of time
    And say which grain will grow and which will not,
    Speak, then, to me, who neither beg nor fear
    your favors nor your hate."(I.iii.54) Banquo said this to the three whitches.

  6. 'Approach the chamber and destroy your sight
    With a new Gorgon. Do not bid me speak.
    See and then speak yourself.
    (Macbeth and Lennox exit)
    Ring the alarum bell.-Murder and treason!
    Bonquo and Donalbain, Malcom, awake!
    Shake off this downy sleep, deaths counterfeit,
    And look on death itself. Up, up, and see
    The great doom's image. Malcom, Bonquo,
    As from your graves and walk like sprites
    To countenance this horror.- Ring the bell.

    (II.iii.83) Macduff returns to Macbeth and Lennox from the kings bedroom, then starts frantically shouting.

  7. "Macbeth! Macbeth! Beware Macduff!
    Beware the Thane of Fife! Dismiss me. Enough...
    Be bloody, blod, and resolute. Laugh to scorn
    The power of man, for non of woman born
    Shall harm Macbeth...
    Be lion-mettled, proud, and take no care
    Who chafes, who frets, or where conspirers are.
    Macbeth shall never vanquished be until
    Great Birnam Wood to high Dunsinane Hill
    Shall come against him" (IV.i.81)
    The Weird Sisters are talking to Macbeth.

  8. "O, never
    Shall the sun that morrow see!
    Your face, my thane, is as a book where men
    May read strange matters. To beguile the time,
    Look like the time. Bear welcome in your eye,
    You hand, your tongue. Look like th' innocent flower,
    But be the serpent under't. He that's coming
    Must be provided for; and you shall put
    This night's great business into my dispatch,
    Which shall to all our nights and days to come
    Give solely sovereign sway and masterdom."(I.vi.71) Lady Macbeth says this to Macbeth.

  9. "Out, damned spot, out, I say! One. Two. Why then, 'tis time to do 't. Hell is murky. Fie, my lord, fie, a soldier and afeard? What need we fear who knows it, when non can call our power to account? Yet who would have thought the old man to have had so much blood in him?" (V.i.36) Lady Macbeth is talking in her sleep while the Gentle Woman and the Doctor is watching her.

  10. "She should have died hereafter.
    There would have been a time for such a word.
    Tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow
    Creeps in this petty pace from day to day
    To the last syllable of recorded time,
    And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
    The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
    Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player
    That struts and frets his hour upon the stage
    And then is heard no more. It is a tale
    Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
    Signifying nothing" (V.v.20) Macbeth is talking to Seyton about Lady Macbeth's death.

  11. That will never be.
    Who can impress the forest, bid the tree
    Unfix his earthbound root? Sweet Bodements, good!
    Rebellious dead, rise never till the wood
    Of Birnman rise, and our high-placed Macbeth
    Shall live the lease of nature, pay his breath
    To time and mortal custom. Tell me, if your art
    Can tell so much: shall Banquo's issue ever
    Reign in this kingdom?(IV.i.108) Macbeth says this to the three witches.

  12. That way the noise is. Tyrant, show thy face!
    If thou beest slain, and with no stroke of mine,
    My wife and children’s ghosts will haunt me still.
    I cannot strike at wretched kerns, whose arms
    "Are hired to bear their staves. Either thou, Macbeth,
    Or else my sword with an unbattered edge
    I sheathe again undeeded. There thou shouldst be;
    By this great clatter, one of the greatest note
    Seems bruited. Let me find him, Fortune,
    And more I beg not." (V,vii, 19-28)

  13. "Your son, my lord, has paid a soldier’s debt.

    But like a man he died." (V,viii, 44-48)

    Before we reckon with your several loves
    And make us even with you. My thanes and kinsmen,
    Henceforth be earls, the first that ever Scotland
    In such an honor named. What’s more to do,
    Which would be planted newly with the time,
    As calling home our exiled friends abroad
    That fled the snares of watchful tyranny,
    Producing forth the cruel ministers
    Of this dead butcher and his fiendlike queen,
    Who, as ’tis thought, by self and violent hands
    Took off her life; this, and what needful else
    That calls upon us, by the grace of Grace,
    We will perform in measure, time, and place.
    So, thanks to all at once and to each one,
    Whom we invite to see us crowned at Scone." (V, viii, 72-88)

    Of many kings." (III, i, 1-6)

  20. "Alas, poor country,
    Almost afraid to know itself. It cannot
    Be called our mother, but our grave, where nothing
    But who knows is once seen to smile;
    Where sighs and groans and shrieks that rent the air
    Are made, not marked; where violent sorrow seems
    A modern ecstasy. The dwad man's knell
    Is there scarce asked for who, and good men's lives
    Expire before the fliwers in aheir caps,
    Dying or ere they sicken."

    The cry is still "They come!" Our castle's strength
    Will laugh a siege to scorn. Here let them lie
    Till famine and the ague eat them up.
    Were they not forced with those that should be ours,
    We might have met them dareful, beard to beard,
    And beat them backward home." (V, v 1-7)

  22. "We have scorched the snake, not killed it.
    She'll close and abe herself whilst our poor malice
    Remains in danger of her former tooth.
    But let the frame of things disjoint, both the worlds
    suffer,
    Ere we will eat our meal in fear, and sleep
    In the affliction of these terrible dreams
    That shake us nightly. Better be with the dead,
    Whom we, to gain our peace, have sent to peace,
    Than on the torture of the mind to lie
    In restless ecstasy. Duncan is in his grave.
    After life's fitful fever he sleeps well.
    Treason has done his worst; nor steel nor poison,
    Malice domestic, foreign levy, nothing
    Can touch him further" (III.II.15-28)

  23. "Take thy face hence.
    Seyton!-I am sick at heart
    When I behond-Seyton, I say!-This push
    Will cheer me ever or [disseat] me now.
    I have lived long enough. My way of life
    Is fall'n into the sere, the yellow leaf,
    And that which should accompany old age,
    As honor, love, obedience, troops of friends,
    I must not look to have, but in their stead
    Curses, not loud but deep, mouth-honored, breath
    Which the poor heart would fain deny and dare not.-" (V.III.22-32)

  25. "If ill,
    Why hath it given me earnest of success
    Commencing in a truth? I am Thane of Cawdor.
    If good, why do I yield to that suggestion
    Whose horrid image doth unfix my hair
    And make my seated heart knock at my ribs
    Against the use of nature? Present fears
    Are less than horrible imaginings"(I.iii. 144-151).

  26. "So shall I, love,
    And so, I pray, be you. Let your remembrance
    Apply to Banquo; present him eminence,
    Both with eye and tongue: unsafe the while that we
    Must lave our honors in these flattering streams,
    And make our faces vizards to our hearts,
    Disguising what they are." (III.ii.32-37)

  27. Be innocent of knowledge, dearest chuck,
    Till thou applaud the deed. -Come, seeling night,
    Scarf up the tender eye of pitiful day
    And with thy bloody and invisible hand
    Cancel and tear to peices that great bond
    Which keeps me pale. Light thickens, and the crow
    Makes wing to th' rooky wood.
    Good things of day begin to droop and drowse,
    Whiles night's black agents to their preys do rouse.
    Thou marevel'st at my words, but hold thee still.
    Things bad begun make strong themselves by ill.
    So prithee go with me" (III.ii. 51-63).
    Macbeth is speaking to Lady Macbeth.

    We’ll hear ourselves again" (III.iv.29-33)

  30. "The raven himself is hoarse
    That croaks the fatal entrance of Duncan
    Under my battlements. 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. Make thick my blood,
    Stop up th’access and passage to remorse,
    That no compunctious visitings of nature
    Shake my fell purpose, nor keep peace between
    Th’ effect and it. Come to my woman’s breasts,
    And take my milk for gall, you murd’ring ministers,
    Wherever in your sightless substances
    You wait on nature’s mischief. Come, thick night,
    And pall thee in the dunnest smoke of hell,
    That my keen knife see not the wound it makes,
    Nor heaven peep through the blanket of the dark,
    To cry ‘Hold, hold!’" (I.v. 45-61)

  31. Macbeth,[aside]
    "The Price of Cumberland! that is a step
    On which I must fall down or else o'erleap,
    For in my way it lies. Stars, hide your fires;

    And something from the palace; always thought
    That I require a clearness. And with him
    (To leave no rubs nor botches in the work)
    Fleance, his son, that keeps him company,

    By Sinel's death I know I am thane of Glamis.
    But how of Cawdor? The Thane of Cawdor lives
    A prosperous glentleman, abd to be king
    Stands not within the prospect of belief,
    No more than to be Cawdor. Say from whence
    You owe this strange intelligence or why
    Upon this blasted health you stop our way
    With such Prophetic greeting. Speak, I charge you." (I.iii.75)

  35. Great business must be wrought ere noon.
    Upon the corner of the moon
    There hangs a vap'rous drop profound.
    I'll Catch it ere it come to ground,
    And that , distilled by magic sleights,
    Shall raise such artificial sprites
    As by the strength of their illusion
    Shall draw him on to his confusion.
