In the beginning of the play Macbeth appears to be a caring person who even though wanted to do wrong couldn't, due to his morals. Macbeth is nervous and scared to assassinate Duncan and this is known from the siloqy that he presents to the audience in act 1 scene VII he says " If it were done when 'tis done, then 'twere well It were done quickly. If th' assassination could trammel up the consequence, and catch, with his surcease, success;that but this blow might be-all and the end-all__ here, But here, upon this bank and shoal of time, We'd jump the life to come.
