Question: Lady macDUFF in lady macBETH!?
What size role is Lady Macduff in Macbeth!? Would you consider it a good role for one who would be more experienced than the rest of the cast(IMO BETTER than the rest of the cast)!? I'm asking because I have a friend who auditioned and she got that role, shared with another(so only 2 shows!!! and will be working all day everyday for the rest of the summer on it, not paid), she's the oldest, most experienced then the rest!. I personally think it's because the rest were all suck upsWww@QuestionHome@Com

What had he done, to make him fly the land!?

IV,2,1741
He had none:
His flight was madness: when our actions do not,
Our fears do make us traitors!.

IV,2,1746
Wisdom! to leave his wife, to leave his babes,
His mansion and his titles in a place
From whence himself does fly!? He loves us not;
He wants the natural touch: for the poor wren,
The most diminutive of birds, will fight,
Her young ones in her nest, against the owl!.
All is the fear and nothing is the love;
As little is the wisdom, where the flight
So runs against all reason!.

IV,2,1769
Father'd he is, and yet he's fatherless!.

IV,2,1774
Sirrah, your father's dead;
And what will you do now!? How will you live!?

IV,2,1777
What, with worms and flies!?

IV,2,1779
Poor bird! thou'ldst never fear the net nor lime,
The pitfall nor the gin!.

IV,2,1783
Yes, he is dead; how wilt thou do for a father!?

IV,2,1785
Why, I can buy me twenty at any market!.

IV,2,1787
Thou speak'st with all thy wit: and yet, i' faith,
With wit enough for thee!.

IV,2,1790
Ay, that he was!.

IV,2,1792
Why, one that swears and lies!.

IV,2,1794
Every one that does so is a traitor, and must be hanged!.

IV,2,1796
Every one!.

IV,2,1798
Why, the honest men!.

IV,2,1802
Now, God help thee, poor monkey!
But how wilt thou do for a father!?

IV,2,1807
Poor prattler, how thou talk'st!

IV,2,1819
Whither should I fly!?
I have done no harm!. But I remember now
I am in this earthly world; where to do harm
Is often laudable, to do good sometime
Accounted dangerous folly: why then, alas,
Do I put up that womanly defence,
To say I have done no harm!?
[Enter Murderers]
What are these faces!?

IV,2,1829
I hope, in no place so unsanctified
Where such as thou mayst find him!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
