The statement "life is a tale / told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, / signifying nothing" from scene 5, lines 26 to 28 explains the approach of the character to life. He is doubting how his life turned out. He says that life is a tale which tells us it is not true, and signifies nothing means that he doesn't want his life at that moment.
