Lady Macbeth would shatter her baby’s head against a wall if she was asked to murder her baby for power. She would do it without hesitation. In other words, she wants her husband to have this power extremely bad, to the point she would do anything to get it. Her ambition is worse than Macbeth’s ambition. However, he was not entirely positive he would actually go through with the plan for killing the King. Lady Macbeth’s mind has not wavered ever since her husband told her about his future. For example, she stated, “Which thou esteem’st the ornament of life,/And live a coward in thine own esteem,/Letting ‘I dare not’ wait upon ‘I would,’/Like the poor cat i' th' adage?” ( I. VII. 42-45). Lady Macbeth said how Macbeth would not go after his goal because it would ruin his reputation. She told him this as they confabulated about murdering King
