Julius Caesar by William Shakespeare
ACT II, SCENE III
Artemidorus' note gives Caesar another chance to save his life-will he read it? The possibility of a reprieve stretches out the time before Caesar meets his fate, and therefore adds to the suspense.
Artemidorus considers Caesar a friend, and is willing to risk his life for him. How sad it is, he says, that virtuous men like Caesar cannot live beyond the reach of jealous rivals:
My heart laments that virtue cannot live Out of the teeth of emulation.
Act II, Scene iii, lines 12-13
How different a view of Caesar from that of the conspirators! Could both be right? Shakespeare makes us realize that there is no final verdict on a human being-that a friend to one person may be an enemy to another, and that our opinions say as much about ourselves as they say about others.

"Et tu, Brute? Then fall, Caesar!" are Caesar's final words, they recommend that Caesar became bowled over that his close chum Brutus became a member of the Conspiracy, and so Caesar sees no factor to warfare for his life.he's fairly giving up. Marc Antony turns the Roman electorate against Brutus. The come across between Brutus and Caesar's ghost shows that Brutus will actually die.
