From the tragedy of macbeth by william shakespeare  macbeth. she should have died hereafter; there would have been a time for such a word. tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow creeps in this petty pace from day to day, to the last syllable of recorded time; and all our yesterdays have lighted fools the way to dusty death. out, out, brief candle! 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.  which statement best sums up what is happening in this excerpt?     macbeth is angry that he has been a fool most of his life.     macbeth is secretly glad that lady macbeth has died.      macbeth is surprised at the death of lady macbeth.      macbeth is realizing that life is short.
