- 1"is this a dagger which I see before me, This handle toward my hand? Come, let me clutch thee."Macbeth is aware that the floating knife he sees is not really there. The fact that he is troubled enough to hallucinate, yet still sane enough to understand that he is hallucinating.
- 2"Whence is that knocking? – How is’t with me, when every noise appalls me? What hands are here! Ha, they pluck out mine eyes. Will all great Neptune’s ocean wash this blood Clean from my hand? No, this my hand will rather The multitudinous seas incarnadine, Making the green one red."He hears a knocking at the gate to the castle, and thinks it must be his doom coming to claim him. This moment, now that the dreadful deed is done, shows Macbeth what the rest of his life will be like.
- 3I could not say 'Amen'After Duncan's murder. The fact he could not say the holy word shows that by committing regicide he has become disconnected from God and all goodness, possibly because at the time the king was seen to be chosen by God.
