Macbeth QUOTES and niche referances

• "Prithee, peace" - Macbeth

  His plea reflects his inability to accept lady macbeths attacks on masculinity, macbeths sense of manhood lays on the principles of others perception, his own women of his life threatening this is his weakness and drive into killing duncan to prove his masculinity
• "When you durst do it, then you were a man" - lady macbeth

  her idiomatic manipulation under the false pretence of her own masculinity allowed her to undermine and prey on macbeths weaknesses of fitting to strict gender roles. she recognises this and knows just how to create a perfect situation in her favour.
• Perhaps lady macbeths

  ability to fall inoculously back into feminine assumptions to confuse percievers is proof that the evil spirits in fact did not consume and "unsex" her there, yet she has just learnt to supress it. However shakespeare shows that natural order will always sustain into the great chain of being and her ability of supression will die out in the ultimate duality of her own catharsis envoked bythe peripeteia of incontrollable influence on macbeth.
• "Stop up th' passage to remorse" "Make thick my blood"

  also she has as many as 9x more lines of speech for every line of macbeths
• "Unsex me here"

  she falls into the false pretence that the evil spirits will grant her the wish of masculinity to her core, of which she associates with the ability of positive connotations in public with aggressiveness. she wants to be able to be aggressive and passionate in getting what she wants from Macbeth without the expected submissiveness of female. She wants what she wants and shes willing to drag macbeth along with her to get it.
• Iambic pentameter - lady macbeth

  Iambic pentameter in act 1 scene 5,

  shows her passionate confidence in new found strength, her power.

  Free verse, no feet, by act 5, scene 1

  Perhaps the numbers of the acts and scenes themselves being reversed are yet another structural reflection of her switch.
