Quotes:
1) “ Not that I love Caesar less but I love Rome more”
2) “The evil that men do lives after them; the good is oft interred with their bones. So let it be with Caesar. The noble Brutus hath told you Caesar was ambitious.”
3) “A friendly eye could never see such faults.”
4) “ As fire drives out fire, so pity pity”
5) “ We shall die we know but the time in drawing days that men stand upon”
6) “ Cowards die many times before their deaths; the valiant never taste of death but once”
7) “When beggars die there are no comets seen; the heavens themselves blaze forth the death of princes”
8) “The fault dear Brutus, is not in our stars, but in ourselves, that we are underlings. Brutus and Caesar: what should be in that Caesar? Why should that name be sounded more than yours? Write them together: yours is as fair a name.”
9) “Let me have men about me that are fat, sleek- headed men, and such as sleep a nights. Yon Cassius has a lean and hungry look. He thinks too much. Such men are dangerous.”
10) “I grant I am a woman, but withal a woman that Lord Brutus took to wife. I grant I am a woman, but withal a woman well reputed, Cato’s daughter… Tell me your counsels; I will not disclose em.”
11) “Alas, my lord, your wisdom is consumed in confidence. Do not go forth today. Call it my fear that keeps you in the house and noy in your own. We’ll send Mark Antony to the senate house, and he shall say you are not well today.”
12) “Caesar beware of Brutus. Take heed of Cassius. Come not near Casca.”
13) “There is a tide in the affairs of men which taken at the flood, leads on to fortune; omitted, all the voyage of their life is bound in the shallows and in miseries.”
14) “Most noble in the presence of thy corpse? Had I as many eyes as thou hast wounds, weeping as fast as they streams forth thy blood it would become me better than to close in terms of friendship with thine enemies. Pardon me Julius here wast thou bayed brave hart; here didst thou fall, and here thy hunters stand signed in thy spoil and crimsoned in thy lethe.”
