Character Description: Lady Macbeth

In the beginning of Macbeth, we sort of find out that Lady Macbeth is somewhat ambitious who is hungry for power and position. It seems as if she is more stronger than Macbeth as she scorns Macbeth and demands that he has Duncan dead so that Macbeth can take the crown and become King. Lady Macbeth shows this attitude in Act I, Scene 5, "This night's great business into my dispatch; Which shall to all our nights and days to come Give solely sovereign sway and masterdom. Overall, Lady Macbeth is a cranky woman and she wants her way with everything.
