My idol would be Beck Weathers. He was the incredible person that managed to survive the 1996 Everest disaster.

Shakespeare uses repetition of the adjective false to link the appearance of the face and the heart. Macbeth’s facial expression is false as he is acting customary to the routine of everyday life
