Neither are ghosts physically present when you see them. They are present

The Motivation of Macbeth Many times people do things based off of motivation; in the play Macbeth by William Shakespeare everyone motivates Macbeth to become a powerful evil individual. Macbeth is clearly motivated to a whole new level when he is given a lot of power of authority‚ but along the way he transforms that power into something bad‚ almost evil.
