Answer 1

"The 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. 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. So Caesar may. "

JULIUS CAESAR
by William Shakespere
Act II
Scene I Rome. BRUTUS's orchard.

The character Brutus is justifying his murder of Julius Caesar to his friend Lucius, saying that Caesar is too ambitious and once he has power will abuse it and forget from where it came.


And another thing.....text abbreviations have their place in the world, I use them myself when texting.

But please learn to spell out the whole words when you can...and here you can. It's obvoius that you are intellegent.... but your use of texing jargon like "wud" betrays that intellect.

Answer 2

Those who plotted to kill Caesar were afraid he would accept the role of Emperor and do away with the democratic gains the lawmakers had made in Rome. So they eventually assassinated him.
