October 31, 2008
A list of witches from film, literature and elsewhere by Esther Kustanowitz at Idol Chatter:
“2. The Three Weird Sisters, from “Macbeth.” “Double, double, toil and trouble…fire burn, and cauldron bubble.” I memorized this scene in high school, and I still remember it. The “weird sisters,” as these witches are known, were the voice of prophecy, and they shared with Macbeth the prophecies that guide his actions and understanding of events.”
