brutus. be patient till the last.
romans, countrymen, and lovers! hear me for my
cause, and be silent, that you may hear. believe me
for mine honour, and have respect to mine honour, that

caesar’s, to him i say that brutus’ love to caesar

why brutus rose against caesar, this is my
not that i loved caesar less, but that i loved
rome more.

antony. 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 interrèd with their bones.
so let it be with caesar. the noble brutus
hath told you caesar was ambitious.
if it were so, it was a grievous fault,
and grievously hath caesar answered it.
here, under leave of brutus and the rest—
for brutus is an honourable man,
so are they all, all honourable men—
come i to speak in caesar’s funeral.
he was my friend, faithful and just to me.

The answer is:

Brutus announces that he wants to explain why he killed Caesar, while Antony says that he is simply there to give Caesar a proper burial.

In the excerpt from "Julius Caesar," Brutus intends to justify himself for assassinating Caesar. In that matter, he claims to be a man of honor and that he killed him because he loves Rome. The reason he gives is that Caesar would be dangerous for everyone and would make the people slaves.

Antony, on the other hand, expresses his sorrow over his friend's death and makes use of irony to describe Brutus and the conspirators as honorable men.

Answer from: bryceisabeast6206

In the excerpt from act 3, scene 2, of Julius Caesar. Brutus's reason for giving his monologue compares to Antony's reason for giving his in that Brutus announces that he wants to explain why he killed Caesar, while Antony says that he is simply there to give Caesar a proper burial.

Brutus exposes himself in front of all the people of Rome, telling them to be the judge of his actions. He declares that he devoted himself to Rome and that is why he did what he did (he killed Caesar), even though that, according to him, he loved Caesar as much as them.

On the other hand, Antony declares that he was not there to praise Caesar, but as a good friend of him, he wanted to give him a proper burial. He considers that Caesar's actions must be judged as they were, and that if a man has done harm in life, it stays with his memory after his departure, whereas good actions vanish in time.

What argument does thomas jefferson make in this excerpt from the declaration of independence? we hold these truths to be self-evident that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.-that to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, -that whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness. a. b. c. the american colonists desire a more peaceful alliance with great britain but their british counterparts do not. the american colonists have a right to seek freedom from great britain due to the continued oppression of their basic rights. the american colonies could form a better government than the one established by great britain to govern them. the king of britain and the members of british parliament have little interest in the welfare of the colonies. od. e. the american colonies should have sufficient representation in british parliament if america and great britain are to coexist peacefully.
