Macbeth Test Review

Macbeth quotes to know for the unit test.
Know-
Who said the quote
What the quote means
And what the context of the quote is

1.1
Fair is foul and foul is fair
Hover through the fog and filthy air

1.3

Oftentimes, to win us to our harm,

The instruments of darkness tell us truths,

Win us with honest trifles, to betray 's

In deepest consequence

1.4

There's no art
To find the mind's construction in the face:
He was a gentleman on whom I built
An absolute trust

Stars, hide your fires;
Let not light see my black and deep desires

1.5
Yet I do fear thy nature;
It is too full o' th' milk of human kindness
To catch the nearest way.

Come, you spirits That tend on mortal thoughts, unex me here,

And fill me, from the crown to the toe, top-full

Of direst cruelty!

1.7

Screw your courage to the sticking-place,

And we'll not fail.

2.1

I go, and it is done: the bell invites me.

Hear it not, Duncan, for it is a knell

That summons thee to heaven, or to hell.

2.2

Methought I heard a voice cry "Sleep no more!

Macbeth does murder sleep"

2.3

Drink, sir, is a great provoker of three things.

Marry, sir, nose-painting, sleep, and urine.

Where we are

There's daggers in men's smiles, the near in blood,

The nearer bloody.

3.1

Upon my head they placed a fruitless crown

And put a barren scepter in my gripe,

Thence to be wrenched with an unlineal hand,

No son of mine succeeding.

3.2

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.

3.4

Ay, my good lord: safe in a ditch he bides,

With twenty trenched gashes on his head,

The least a death to nature.

4.1

From the pricking of my thumbs, something wicked this way comes

The poor wren,

The most diminutive of birds, will fight,

Her young ones in her nest, against the owl.

5.1

Out, damned spot!
