Read the excerpt from act 1, scene 3, of The Tragedy of Macbeth. Macbeth. [Aside.] If chance will have me king, why, chance may crown me, Without my stir.

Macbeth says that if “chance” (fate) intends for him to become king, it can crown him without his “stir,” meaning without him taking action. So he is saying he does not need to interfere or make plans to bring it about. The choice that expresses this is “If fate is going to make me king, it will happen without my interference.”
