Answer Details
Macbeth spoke these words in William Shakespeare's play, Macbeth. This speech, commonly referred to as the "bloody hands" speech, occurs after Macbeth has ordered the murder of his friend Banquo and the attempted murder of Banquo's son, Fleance. Macbeth realizes that he has become so deeply involved in his own bloodshed that there is no turning back, and that it is easier to continue committing violent acts than to try to stop.
