Brutus Is Not An Honorable Man In Julius Caesar‚ it is obvious that Brutus is not an honorable man. He broke trust and that alone is not possibly honorable. How is turning your back on a so called friend okay? If Brutus was honorable he wouldn’t have been so easily persuaded by Cassius to go as far as committing a murder.

Although the conspirators believe that enlisting Brutus in the conspiracy will ensure their success‚ Brutus’s tragic flaws of naivety and pride cause him to make a number of errors in judgment that ultimately doom their “noble enterprise” to failure.
