What it tells us about the character

Julius Caesar

1 the things that threaten’ d me Ne’er look’d
but on my back; when they shall see
The face of Caesar, they are vanished

1 arrogant

2 Cowards die many times before their
deaths;
The valiant never taste of death but once

2 over-confident

3 What can be avoided
Whose end is purposed by the mighty gods?
Yet Caesar shall go forth; for these predictions
Are to the world in general as to Caesar

3 fearless

4 I could be well moved, if I were as you:If
I could pray to move, prayers would move me:
But I am constant as the northern star,
Of whose true-fix'd and resting quality
There is no fellow in the firmament

4 firm

5 Are all thy conquests, glories, triumphs,
spoils,
Shrunk to this little measure?

5 great conqueror

6 To every Roman citizen he gives,
To every several man, seventy-five drachmas

6 generous

What it tells us about the character

Mark Antony

1 That I did love thee, Caesar, O, 'tis
true:
If then thy spirit look upon us now,

1 loyal

2 Pardon me, Caius Cassius:
The enemies of Caesar shall say this;
Then, in a friend, it is cold modesty

2 clever

3 Therefore I took your hands, but was,
indeed,
Sway'd from the point, by looking down on Caesar
Friends am I with you all and love you all,
Upon this hope, that you shall give me reasons
Why and wherein Caesar was dangerous

3 shrewd

4 When that the poor have cried, Caesar hath
wept:
Ambition should be made of sterner stuff:
Yet Brutus says he was ambitious;
And Brutus is an honourable man

4 crafty

5 Friends, Romans, countrymen, lend me your
ears;
I come to bury Caesar, not to praise him
The evil that men do lives after them;The good is oft interred
with their bones;
So let it be with Caesar

5 good orator

6 O masters, if I were disposed to
stir
Your hearts and minds to mutiny and rage,
I should do Brutus wrong, and Cassius wrong,
Who, you all know, are honourable men:
I will not do them wrong; I rather choose
To wrong the dead, to wrong myself and you,
Than I will wrong such honourable men
