Lady MacBeth: "unsex me here."
In this quote lady MacBeth is wanting and wishing to become more manly and loose her femininity. At this point in the play she is much bolder then her husband and is frustrated that he in a way, the woman in the relationship. He had been feeling extreme guilt and she just wanted to take control and be more manly and powerful. She was in no way guilty, but instead she was mindset to become strong.
In this quote lady macbeth is pretty much admitting to the murder of duncan. She is extremely guilty and reality is setting in. She lost all sight of being powerful and she pretty much lost her mind. This passage lead to her suicide. She was so guilty that she felt she could never be clean of the crimes she had committed and was scared of what hell might have to bring her.
Her attitude drastically changes from the first quote from the second quote. Finally reality took its toll and she had realized what she had done. Although i do feel bad for her she did this to herself and she got what she deserved.
