Julius caesar quotes brutus honorable8/27/2023 Quote 5: Brutus: "Swear priests and cowards, and men cautelous, old feeble carrions, and such suffering souls that welcome wrongs unto bad causes swear such creatures as men doubt but do not stain the even virtue of our enterprise, nor th'insuppressive mettle of our spirits, to think that or our cause or our performance did need an oath when every drop of blood that every Roman bears, and nobly bears, is guilty of a several bastardy, if he do break the smallest particle of any promise that hath pass'd from him." Act II, Scene I, Line 129 Speak, strike, redress!" Act II, Scene I, Line 46 Quote 4: "Brutus, thou sleep'st awake, and see thyself. So Caesar may then lest he may, prevent." Act II, Scene I, Line 18 But 'tis a common proof, that lowliness is young ambition's ladder, whereto the climber-upward turns his face but when he once attains the upmost round, he then unto the ladder turns his back, looks in the clouds, scorning the base degrees by which he did ascend. Quote 3: Brutus: "Th' abuse of greatness is when it disjoins remorse from power and, to speak truth of Caesar, I have not known when his affections sway'd more than his reason. Quote 2: Cassius: ".Cassius from bondage will deliver Cassius: Therein, ye gods, you make the weak most strong Therein, ye gods, you tyrants do defeat: Nor stony tower, nor walls of beaten grass, nor airless dungeon, nor strong links of iron, can be retentive to the strength of spirit but life, being weary of these worldly bars, never lacks power to dismiss itself." Act I, Scene III, Line 90 Quote 1: Casca: "But those that understood him smil'd at one another, and shook their heads but for mine own part, it was Greek to me." Act I, Scene II, Line 279
