Answer:

B). Life

Step-by-step explanation:

Shakespeare one of the most popular sayings where he states "Life is a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing". He exemplifies this popular phrase in Macbeth that symbolizes his 'nihilism'. Macbeth states this phrase after the death of his lady Macbeth that makes him lose all the meaning of life. For him, the life turns absurd and life turns meaningless that lasts shortly and filled with 'sound and fury'. He is grief-stricken and is in state of extreme despair that takes him towards 'nihilism'. Thus, the correct option would be 'life' which 'is a tale told by an idiot'.
