Macbeth Quotes

What should be spoken here, where our fate, / Hid in an auger hole, may rush, and seize us? / Let’s away. Our tears are not yet brew’d.

In the great hand of God I stand; and thence / Against the undivulg’d pretence I fight / Of treasonous malice.

There is none but he / Whose being I do fear: and under him / My genius is rebuk’d; as, it is said, / Mark Antony’s was by Caesar.

If there come truth from them / (As upon thee, Macbeth, their speeches shine) / Why, by the verities on thee made good, / May they not be my oracles as well, / And set me up in hope?

So weary with disasters, tugg’d with fortune, / That I would set my life on any chance, / To mend it or be rid on’t.

We have lost best half of our affair.

The west yet glimmers with some streaks of day. / Now spurs the lated traveller apace, / To gain the timely inn; and near approaches / The subject of our watch.

Stones have been known to move, and trees to speak; / Augurs, and understood relations, have / By magot-pies, and choughs, and rooks, brought forth / The secret’st man of blood.—

That will never be: / Who can impress the forest; bid the tree / Unfix his earth-bound root?

Then live, Macduff: what need I fear of thee? / But yet I'll make assurance double sure, / And take a bond of fate.
