What is ambition？
"The desire for personal achievement" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ambition) is the definition for achievement. everyone has it, and needs it. As a student, my biggest ambition is to study well and get into University. Others may have other ambitions, such as their biggest dreams. Ambition gives us the drive to go on in this world. In Macbeth, Lady Macbeth has the ambition to murder King Duncan.. The quote by Lady Macbeth, "And we will not fail. When Duncan...our great quell?" (61) gives plan about what they will do as a team to kill him. Because that Macbeth was loyal to Duncan at the start, he dares not to execute this plan. However, because of Lady Macbeth's power over her husband, she convinces Macbeth. Ambition is usually a good quality, if one is ambitious about a pursue in career, or an achievement. However, as explained in the example, ambition can be bad, too. Having the ambition to murder someone is never a good thing.
