What does Duncan say about the former Thane of Cawdor? Explain how Duncans first line supports the theme about apperance vs. reality?

He said he had trusted him but he was a traitor, Things are not always as they appear.

Explanation:

Duncan says he trusted Cawdor but he must not be a good judge of character form looking at a person's face. We can't always tell what people are really thinking based on their faces. Appearances canbe deceiving. This is ironic because Duncan is praising Macbeth and giving his honors while Macbeth is thinking about he can become king.

government is strong when they have the ability to persuade those they govern to believe government has enough power to force them or should be forcing them to do government’s will.

when enough of the citizenry do not believe government can force them or should force them to do its bidding, government has lost or will lose its strength and power to coerce.

when enough of the citizenry do believe government can force or should force them to do its bidding, they become passive at the least or actively pro-government and repeat government’s own rhetoric to pass on what they have been persuaded by government’s propaganda.

a true majority isn’t always needed to govern or to stop government. many times all that is needed is a strong minority. if a determined 30% of the population rises up against government in a concerted effort to bring it down, this size minority usually will succeed as long as those actively opposing the minority are less in force than the minority. so if 41% of the population sits at home watching tv rooting for one side or the other, they don’t matter. it’s the active parties who make a difference.

in   ¨and yet the books¨   by czelaw miloz the tone is positive since it tells us that when we touch a book, it starts to live and the perspective is in the third person and turns once into the first person. in "the rhinoceros" by eugene ionesco the tone is illogical and absurd   and the perspective is in the third person since it is a play.
