  1. I love this the best

    Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player

    That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,

    And then is heard no more. It is a tale

    Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,

    Signifying nothing.

    --Macbeth, Act V, scene v

    There is whole lot you can google from, including  http://www.literary-quotations.com/m/mac...

    However, you need to know what is it that is required from the test, and give an analysis of the situation, added with the right quotation.

    Have a booklet or something to show situations; like

    1) Reference of Macbeth's character:

    By the pricking of my thumbs,

    Something wicked this way comes.

    I am in blood

    Stepp'd in so far, that, should I wade no more,

    Returning were as tedious as go o'er.

    2) Lady Macbeth being more scheming than Macbeth

    Look like the innocent flower,

    But be the serpent under it.

    Come, you spirits

    That tend on mortal thoughts! unsex me here,

    And fill me from the crown to the toe, top-full

    Of direst cruelty; make thick my blood,

    Stop up the access and passage to remorse,

    That no compunctious visitings of nature

    Shake my fell purpose, nor keep peace between

    The effect and it! Come to my woman's b*****s,

    And take my milk for gall, you murdering ministers,

    Wherever in your sightless substances

    You wait on nature's mischief!

    Glamis thou art, and Cawdor; and shalt be

    What thou art promised. Yet do I fear thy nature;

    It is too full o' the milk of human kindness

    To catch the nearest way: thou wouldst be great;

    Art not without ambition; but without

    The illness should attend it.

    ................

    In any ways, the way to score in lit is to

    1) UNDERSTAND what the question is asking. What do they want?

    2) ANALYSE and present your opinion. What do i think?

    3) ANSWER the question. TO THE POINT.
