Hyperboles, or exaggerated statements, appear in "The Tragedy of Macbeth." One example is when Macbeth says, "Will all great Neptune’s ocean wash this blood / Clean from my hand?" which exaggerates the idea of trying to cleanse oneself of guilt. Another hyperbolic statement is when Lady Macbeth tells Macbeth, "My hands are of your color, but I shame / To wear a heart so white," implying extreme guilt and lack of courage.
