1. Ambition is a positive, desirable trait in a person.
  I neither disagree or agree with this statement because it can go both ways. Ambition helped Macbeth achieve the position of Thane, but it backfired when he had too much ambition. His ambition is making him go crazy and mean because of how much he wants power. In real life examples, people can go very far in life because of their ambition and sometimes people scare others away because of too much ambition.
5. Women are more compassionate and less violent than men.
   This is proven wrong in Macbeth because Lady Macbeth is the one who really wants to kill the King and doesn't care who gets hurt. she shows no compassion for how Macbeth feels about it and just wants to be queen. She also comes up with how to kill him.
