Please help! I need a starting point on writing an essay about the book Julius Caesar, specifically about how too much ambition leads to one's destruction. You don't need to write a full essay, maybe some fitting quotes, topic sentences, and/or how to elaborate on the thesis statement more. Thank you!

Hey! Haven't read much of this book before, but hope this helps!

Explanation

The most contagious and destructive disease to plague the human race is greed.

"There is a sufficiency for a man's need but not for man's greed." Mahatma Gandhi.

"Selfishness and greed, individual or national, cause most of our troubles." Harry Truman.

For your thesis statement, I would highly suggest going out of the box. The traditional "I believe " can become redundant and quite awkward in some essays, so I would recommend maybe starting with "In the book Julius Caesar, are the themes portrayed." Feel free to add on or use syonyms, but hope this helps!
