Brutus Essay







“And say you do ’t by our permission; Else shall you not have any hand at all about his funeral” This quotation shows that Brutus is generous, but Brutus made a mistake of not listening to Cassius because if Antony wouldn’t make the speech Rome wouldn’t fallout of Brutus’s hand. This quote shows that Brutus is being a leader and giving orders to people. Brutus is patriotism and he is noble, this shows that he gives his importance to the country. He sacrificed Caesar for Rome to live in freedom and as a republic but this had bought him to his death.

Brutus is willing to be a villager just to keep Rome in peace. This shows his love to the country and therefore he is patriotism because he loves his country and wants them to be a republic. Brutus’s patriotism shows out of Brutus by him killing Caesar because he and the conspiracies thought that when Caesar is the leader of Rome and is a king he might be too arrogant and would let man live in slavery. Brutus killed Caesar because he wanted to let Romans to live in peace this makes Brutus act as a leader and would take in charge of Rome. “Brutus had rather be a villager than to repute himself a son of Rome.” This quotation shows that Brutus is willing to sacrifice himself or bring himself lower to bring Rome into success. This shows that Brutus is patriotism and that he loves his country and that he is willing to become a villager than a roman citizen. This quotation shows that Brutus is loyalty to his country and will do anything for Rome and it shows Brutus’s patriotism because he loves his country. When Brutus plans to kill Caesar he plans to kill him as a sacrifice he did this only to keep Rome as a republic and not letting Caesar to take Romans as slavery. “Let’s be sacrifices, but not butchers, Caius. We all stand up against the spirit of Caesar” This quote shows that Brutus is patriotism because he wants to kill Caesar as a sacrifice and not as a butcher. This shows that Brutus cares more about his country of being a better place without Caesar making slaves. The last quotation means that Brutus wants peace and a republic. Overall Brutus had completed his goal on killing Caesar but not on making the people follow him; therefore Antony wants to carry Caesar’s revenge and curse the conspirators.

Brutus is a person who can be trusted and is a higher respected person this shows that Brutus is an honorable person. Brutus is an honorable person because of his bloodline; his ancestors might have rules Rome once and brought them to peace. Brutus is a generous and an arrogant person, it has made a leader because he is a honorable person. “ He speaks by leave and by permission: And that we are contented Caesar shall have true rites and lawful ceremonies.” This shows that Brutus is an honorable person because even though he killed Caesar he still says that he have rights to have a lawful ceremonies. Brutus is honorable also because let Antony speak at Caesar’s funeral. This quotations means that he is leading Antony and controlling on when shall he speak.


Brutus’s main conflict is on Antony because Antony could change the crowd to turn over the conspirators. Brutus had not completed his goal because he didn’t manage to gain complete control over Rome, and he didn’t make Roman a peaceful place. His goal was noble but not when Antony took lead.
