Julius Caesar Essay

“If there be any assembly, any dear friend of Caesar’s, to him I say that Brutus’ love to Caesar was no less than his. If then that friend demand why Brutus rose against Caesar, this is my answer: Not that I loved Caesar less, but that I loved Rome more” On seeing quotation, you can realize Brutus loved Caesar as much as Romans loved him. But Brutus killed Caesar, because of Rome. Brutus thought Caesar would be dangerous for Rome and it was better to kill Caesar. Brutus loves his country more than Caesar, it means he is patriotic and Brutus believes himself as an honorable man in Caesar’s death.
Brutus doesn’t seem honorable? Then you might be wrong. Brutus was described an honorable man before he joined to the conspirators and also after he joined to them “O, he sits high in all the people’s heart: And that which would appear offence in us His countenance, like richest alchemy, Will change virtue and to worthiness.” This quotation is spoken when the conspirators talked whether take Brutus into their side or not. Brutus was really famous as an honorable man to Romans. Therefore the conspirators thought when they killed Caesar with Brutus; it would not seem, as a murder and it would become right and virtuous. It made the conspirators want to take Brutus into their side. Also the conspirators started to keep their mind constantly to kill Caesar, because they believed strongly that Romans wouldn’t seem as a murder, because of Brutus’ honor. It shows how Brutus was honorable before he joined to the conspirators. “No, not an oath. If not the face of men, The sufferance of our souls, the time’s abuse-If these be motives weak, break off betimes, And every man hence to his idle bed” After he joined to the conspirators, he was also showed as honorable. There is a word oath in the quote and people have an oath to swear what they are doing is not a murder. If Brutus and conspirators didn’t do an oath, it means killing Caesar is not a murder and it is right thing to do. It gives evidence that Caesar’s assassination and Brutus is honorable. Brutus is described himself as an honorable man in Julius Caesar and I agree it. He was famous with his honor in the public.
Brutus’s main motivation is patriotic. Caesar’s death also shows Brutus’ patriotism. He killed Caesar, because of Rome. He thought if Caesar were alive, it would affect Rome bProxy-Connection: keep-alive

ly. Therefore Brutus joined to the conspirators and planned to kill Caesar even though he was Caesar’ friend. “Let’s kill him boldly, but not wrathfully; Let’s carve him as a dish fit for the gods” You can see it as a respect for Caesar, but it shows patriotism as well. Brutus slew Caesar for gods to affect Rome in good way. “It must be by his death; and for my part, I know no personal cause to spurn at him, But for the general.” It means Brutus killed Caesar with no personal reason. It means, Brutus didn’t kill Caesar because he didn’t like Caesar or jealous his power It was solely for the welfare of the people. Caesar’s death is described to affect Romans and Rome in good way as well as the first quotation. Brutus and the conspirators killed Caesar for Rome and Romans to be happy. Brutus thought that if Caesar got the crown, it would alter his nature. Slaying Caesar for showing Brutus’s patriotism might be wrong, however his patriotism shows reality.
Brutus is patriotic and honorable enough to think that Caesar’s death was right thing to do. His honor and patriotism made Brutus to kill Caesar, because Caesar was dangerous to Rome if he got the crown. I think Brutus achieved actual goal, which was to kill Caesar. But he didn’t really show his honor and patriotism to the public after he slew Caesar. When he spoke in front of crowds, he didn’t really tell them why Caesar was ambitious and about his own patriotism. Therefore Caesar’s death would seem as a murder to the citizens. I believe his goal was pretty worthy. I also respect that Brutus killed Caesar, because of his country. I swear Brutus was a patriotic and honorable man for Rome and Romans.

But he didn’t registrant when he was born, so he made a new one in America as 17 years old and he could go the high school. Americans thought that Peter wouldn’t be smart.

He could not find many refugees at there. Peter was satisfied to take the education, but Peter was not good at English and other subjects. Therefore he had hard time to follow the classes.
