In Act 2 Scene 1 of the Shakespearean play 'Macbeth', Banquo and his son Fleance met in the court of Macbeth's castle at Inverness. Banquo explained that he had been unable to sleep. He said that 'cursed thoughts' [Line 8] were keeping him awake. Most likely, he was referring to the witches' predictions of his fathering a long line of kings of Scotland, in Act 1 Scene 2.
The difference is that Lady Macbeth at first wanted Macbeth to kill Banquo and Macbeth was too scared to do it. Later on in the tragedy, Lady Macbeth gets haunted and gets mentally ill and Macbeth keeps on killing people.
No, Banquo wasn't responsible for his own death. It was that unfortunate case of being in the wrong place at the wrong time and knowing the wrong person at the wrong time. His friend and fellow General Macbeth [d. August 15, 1057] was ragingly ambitious. Macbeth accepted the witches' predictions of his promotions to Thane of Cawdor and to King as the facts of his life, the rights to which he was entitled, and the shape of his destiny. He wanted to consolidate his rule. The minute he learned that Banquo's family line ultimately would take over the throne, Macbeth turned his friend into an enemy to be eliminated as soon as possible.
Grouch It should be Gruoch.... She was Lady Gruoch of Scotland before she married Macbeth. Throughout the play she is usually referred to as Lady Macbeth.
