What character says this quotation?"Thou canst not say I did it. Never shakeThy gory locks at me" (III.iv.61-62)

The quotation "Thou canst not say I did it. Never shake Thy gory locks at me" is spoken by the character Macbeth in William Shakespeare's play "Macbeth." This line occurs in Act 3, Scene 4, during the banquet scene where Macbeth is confronted by the ghost of Banquo. The appearance of Banquo's ghost unsettles Macbeth, revealing his guilt and paranoia about his role in the murder of Banquo, who he had ordered to be killed to secure his throne. This moment is pivotal as it illustrates Macbeth's deteriorating mental state and the consequences of his ambitious actions. The line expresses Macbeth's denial of responsibility and signifies a turning point in his transformation as he becomes increasingly haunted by his deeds.
