Well you know Macbeth met three witches a while back, and they told him 4 prophecies.

1. Macbeth shall be Thane Of Glamis
2. Macbeth shall be Thane Of Cawdor
3. Macbeth shall be King
4. Banquo's children will be King

This all made Macbeth a power hungry man. He realizes he's already Thane of Glamis, so why can't he be Thane of Cawdor, and Kin, he is of power already.

The witches' can fortell the futur, therefore have the ability to create temptation, and influence Macbeth in a big way. By telling Macbeth he can become King he was impatient and wanted to hurry up the process, yet they cannot control his futur; that he does himself.

Macbeth creates his own misery, which makes him insecure, which causes him to commit murder, more than once.

The witches' are responsible for introducing the thoughts to Macbeth and for further forming the ideas.

Macbeth was a victim of the witches' prophecies, and the four apparitions, however, he brought his defeat upon himself
