"Be bloody, bold, and resolute. Laugh to scorn the power of man, for none of women born shall harm Macbeth."

In act four scene one there is a quote saying "Be bloody, bold, and resolute. Laugh to scorn the power of man, for none of women born shall harm Macbeth." This quote means that the blood child is the second of the three apparitions that the witches conjure up for Macbeth. This tells Macbeth to not fear and have confidence, because no one born from a women can harm him. Therefore with that being said Macbeth thinks he is invincible that no man can defeat him. Macbeth decides to ignore the first witch that told him to beware of Macduff. What he doesn't know is that the "blood child" is Macduff's infant covered with blood from the ripped womb of his mother.
