Fortune smiles on someone. They are honoured and respected by their peers, and have achieved more than they could have ever have dreamed of. And then they go crazy and start demanding more and more.
Life is short. Recognition and wellbeing must be achieved immediately. Immediately! May one’s glory increase quickly, may one’s throne grow larger, and may its splendour overshadow the pain and blood that has been spilled in the course of one’s ascension to that throne.
It is not eternal glory that people desire, but one that is tangible, in the here and now. Take what belongs to you! Seize the moment, before it disappears! Overcome all the obstacles! Do not hesitate! Because deep down a doubt lingers that nothing else exists beyond glory and the present day.
Macbeth is the story of a man who unleashes a blood bath. One murder becomes many, and the blood staining one’s hands can never be washed off.
