way to be the next king. Macbeth becomes so greedy about becoming king that he and his wife did evil deeds to stop another from being in front of Macbeth. The guilty consciousness along with insanity and greed killed not only Macbeth’s character and soul, but his wife’s too. Lady Macbeth seems more ruthless because she takes on the persona of the head of the family and over powers Macbeth’s mind and soul. She wears Macbeth down both mentally and physically by persuading him that everything bad he did there is a good to it. She also tells Macbeth that the crimes they commit are not bad but will help them advance in life, which was totally opposite of what occurs. Lady Macbeth displays much more ruthlessness than Macbeth does....
