Who is Really to be Blamed?

We are known for destroying the lives of others but we do not feel responsible for destroying Macbeth’s life because it was really Lady Macbeth who destroyed his life.  Lady Macbeth was the one who kept on pushing Macbeth to kill Duncan by threatening his manliness.  “When you durst do it, then you are a man; And, to be more the man.” If Lady Macbeth did not encourage Macbeth to kill Duncan then he wouldn’t have at his own will, and he wouldn’t have killed all of the innocent people.  We the witches were sure that Banquo’s prophecy would have definitely come true only if Macbeth did not have him killed because of his guilty conscience.  Macbeth states that the only reason why he had Banquo killed was because he knew too much, but we are witches with power and we know a lot about people, and Macbeth killed Banquo out of fear and nothing else.   Macbeth and his wife both drastically changed before they both died because when we first met Lady Macbeth she was a very strong person, but right before she died she became weaker and weaker.  When we first met Macbeth he wasn’t very confident and he seemed at first to be scared of us witches.  The last time we met with Macbeth he was a very strong person.  It’s too bad that he was killed because we had so many things planned for him and his future.  We had so many other prophecies that we thought he would of been interested in.
