i don't know if i agree

Basically what he's saying is that he's already done so much to try
and make the witches' prophecies come true that he has no choice
but to go forward. In a sense, that's true - unless he continues,
he probably will be found out and executed. But I don't like to look
at it that way. He didn't have to kill anyone - he could have just
been content with Glamis and Cawdor.
As to how he got to that point - human nature. Ambition does strange
things to people...
Or you could go with the whole fate theme.
