"Fair is foul, and foul is fair" so far is repeating through out the play. It has an important role in explaining how merciless actions are going to continue as the play excels in a positive manner. Macbeth finds his fate in the Wyrd sisters to be quite foul as he soon finds himself Thane of Cawdor, fulfilling the first witches prophecy. You can tell that Macbeth is going to act out in violent ways, tyranny may overcome him. He wants to push his way to be king, but the only way he can is if he murders Duncan. Although the equity in the play when the Thane of Cawdor betrays Norway, he is sacrificed. It's hard to tell what is foul or fair, or if there is any difference between the two at all. The maelstrom weather patterns when the witches appear also accompany the foul play predicting something bad will happen.
