Macbeth

In the Play, Macbeth, by William Shakespeare, the main character Macbeth is powerless against the final outcome of his life. Macbeth although, does have power over his reactions to the event presented by fate. These actions are influenced by his wife, Lady Macbeth, and the three weird sisters. Macbeth is powerless over the outcome of his life. He can only chose how he reacts to the set of chosen events. The witches who only have the power to for see the future inform Macbeth of his destiny (Act 1 scene 3 line 50). Macbeth would have become king regardless of his actions since it was his destiny. The actions following the predictions of Macbeth's future were under the power of Macbeth but influenced by himself, Lady Macbeth, and the predictions of the three sisters.

Macbeth's envy lead to the murder of Duncan and the envy of his comrades overcame his ambition and lead to Macbeth's downfall. Another example of the powerlessness of Macbeth against destiny; Macbeth can not change what was projected by the witches. Rather he would have let his destiny come to him holly. In the opinion of the established, all revolutionaries are actuated by Envy. He can only respond to destiny, not control it.
