... Macbeth and Lady Macbeth have both of it, they have greatness and they have evil inside their mind. During the play greatness and evil just have a different balance. At the beginnig greatness has the greater value. A good example for this is Macbeth as the loyal warrior, who doesn´t even think about murdering his king. If you go further evil starts to get the upperhand and keeps it until the end of the play. ...
But how can a loyal warrior and a proper wife both turn to evil? ... Macbeth´s weakness is his ambition. He is a courageous Scottish general who is not naturally inclined to commit evil deeds, yet he deeply desires power and advancement. ... In this inner conflict , which is found in Act I, scene 7, lines 1–28, Macbeth debates whether he should kill Duncan. When he lists Duncans noble qualities (he "[h]ath borne his faculties so meek") and the loyalty that he feels toward his king ("I am his kinsman and his subject"), we are reminded of just how grave an outrage it is for him to kill his ruler while he is a guest in their house.
