Guy Henry: Cassius

Quotes 

• [Upon seeing graffiti depicting him, literally, stabbing Caesar in the back] 

  Marcus Junius Brutus : [to a slave]  Erase that.

  [Cassius appears] 

  Cassius : I don't know why you're bothering, it's on every wall, every hill in the city... I wouldn't worry too much about scribbles on the wall, Brutus. King Caesar knows you're his loyal friend.

  Marcus Junius Brutus : Oh I'm not worried about that, it's just... Do I really look like that?

  Cassius : It's near.

  [Short pause] 

  Marcus Junius Brutus : But that's tragic.

• Cassius : The people will not accept a tyrant's death unless a Brutus holds the knife.
