Macbeth and Lady Macbeth are alike in many ways;
however, the two are quite different in many ways. Both are too ambitious for their own good. The lust for power
is the main force that drives them both. Macbeth is essentially a good person. He was brave and loyal. This
only changed after his beloved wife questions his manhood. They both have to con or talk other people into doing things
for them. Lady Macbeth talks Macbeth into killing Duncan so that they can take over the throne. After this they both
become ruthless murders. They are unable to stop themselves from killing others. They feel that they must do anything
and everything, in order, to keep the crown. However, at some point they both feel overwhelmed by the guilt. Ironically,
Lady Macbeth is so over come by guilt, that she ends up taking her life. Macbeth also dies in the end but it is
my the hand of Macduff and not his own.
