    Brutus: A. Brutus is patriotic. To be patriotic a person must feel love and duty toward their country. Brutus after reading the letter Lucius had found he says "Oh, Rome, I make thee promise If the redress will follow, thou receivest Thy full petition at the hands of Brutus" (Act 2, Scene 1, Lines 56-58). Also during his explanatory speech after killing Caesar he says to the people “Not that I love Caesar less but that I loved Rome more" (Act 3, Scene 2, Lines 21-22). Brutus is patriotic because he loves his country more than a friend and promises to receive his country justice in his own hands. B. Brutus is honorable. An honorable person is a person with a reputation for having, strong moral and ethical principles. Brutus himself claims, "I love the name of honor more than I fear death"( Act 1, Scene 1, Line 88-89) and Casca then says, "Oh he sits high in all the people's hearts" ( Act 1, Scene 3, Lines157).

    Roman Empire and Brutus

    • 380 Words
    • 2 Pages

    Brutus is a patriotic middle aged man, who truly cares about the well being of his fellow people. “I do fear, the people, Choose Caesar for their king,” says Brutus. (Act 1 scene 2, 80) Despite Brutus’ friendship with Caesar, he much rather prefers Rome to remain a republic. He puts the masses before his own friendship. Brutus in return, is seen as trustworthy and reliable by the people. Indeed, Brutus is a noble man. Brutus says, “For let the gods so speed me as I love, the name of honor more than I fear death.” (act 1 scene 2, 90) He values honesty, fairness and balance. He is willing to lay his own life for what he believes. He is passionate and will do as much as what is needed so that what he believes is right will shine through. Brutus is easily swayed by Cassius in Act 1 scene 2. “Brutus and Caesar—what should be in that “Caesar”?” says the sly Cassius. (Act 2 scene 2, 140) After Cassius’ speech, Brutus considers the proposition of plotting against Caesar and does not shun the idea at all. Brutus is so willing to believe in his worthiness and Cassius’ call for action. He fails to truly listen to the Romans because he is too engrossed in doing what he believes is best for them.…

    The noble Brutus is also a kind master to his servants and a loving friend. He keeps his servant busy yet he still feels indebted to keep him well nourished. Brutus is the truest friend one could ever have. The only thing that surpasses his love for his friends is his love for Rome. He has complete trust for a friend and he is also trustworthy to a friend. Brutus’ love is so powerful to where Cassius had no choice but to submit to it [Quote Cassius: “My heart is thirsty for that noble pledge. Fill, Lucius, till the wine o’erswell the cup; I cannot drink too much of Brutus’ love.” Lines 179, 180, 181]…
