The answer is: Anticleia is explaining why Odysseus cannot embrace her.

In the excerpt from "The Oddysey," Odysseus travels to the underworld, where he finds his mother's spirit. She tells him she has died of sadness, while waiting for him to go back from war. However, when Odysseus wishes to embrace his mother, he finds out her body is not composed of matter - it has no material existance and his arms pass through her. Anticleia is extremely upset, and explains that ghosts have no physical solidness.

Based on the lines “ life’s but a walking shadow, a poor player that struts and frets his hour upon the stage/and then is heard
Vadim26 [7]

In the lines: "life's but a walking shadow, a poor player that struts and frets his hour upon the stage", Macbeth is expressing that life lacks substance and he is also comparing it to the life of an actor who is performing and all of a sudden he is no longer doing so.

In the lines: "it is a tale/told by an idiot, full of sound and fury signifying nothing", Macbeth is comparing life to a story told by someone who lacks intelligence; therefore, it is sort of meaningless.
