Then He Is Dead?

After reading Macbeth, I feel that Macbeth's actions were not worthwhile. He did accomplish his goal of becoming king, but his temporary reign defeats the purpose. Also, his sanity, dignity, and morale was hurt from his actions and the others around him. After Macbeth's fortune was told to him, it seemed as though his demeanor was completely altered in a way for the worse. He could have been a good king, but instead, his cockiness and over-assurance of maintaining his throne made his followers suspicious and skeptical about him. 

 Another point I would like the address is how he was always timid and fearful that another person was plotting to kill him. Hence, he decided to kill Banquo, his best friend. In class, we discussed the topic of being good outweighing the bad. Macbeth's actions of killing Duncan could be justified if he turned out to be good and performed good deeds. Instead, Macbeth constantly did bad, one after another. He went crazy, and I feel that his actions really effected him in the long run. It was just not worth it.
