people in the public eye do their job well it does not matter what they do in private. I do not totally agree with this statement. The term ‘people in the public eye’ are too general a term. Politicians‚ celebrities and many others are all part of the ‘people in the public eye’. Even though everyone is entitled to their own privacy‚ as ‘people in the public eye’‚ they ought to be more mindful of their behaviour in public‚ and of course‚ in private.

The uniform is red because that is what Roman soldiers wore since Caesar was a military leader‚ it made sense to make his uniform red. I also put a crown on Caesar’s head. Caesar really wanted to be crowned and refused it 3 times when Mark Antony offered. Caesar actually wanted the
