Cassius:

Rome had lost its ability to pick strong and courageous men,

Since when has Rome since the beginning of time ever have just one man protecting it?

But only one man being recognise in the whole country

Now on Rome there’s hardly any room for everyone and only this one man

You and me both have heard the stories of Brutus who would have killed the devil (or fought him) to keep the city of Rome safe and sound. Let alone saving it from a King.

Brutus:

I know you love me I have no doubts

i also lately have been thinking about this for some time.

I want nothing more but the best for Rome and its people

There’s another time to talk about this subject, however my good friend listen to this.

I’d rather be a peasant villi far then proudly call myself a citizen of Rome under this King and situation which we are going through.

In act 1 scene 2 Cassius tries to manipulate Brutus into joining his side and to become enemies with Ceasar. Cassius knowing full well Brutus’ high status in Rome and how close he is to Ceasar tells him a story of how he once saved Caesar from a river when he almost drowned and saw him quiver and cry saying “Alas,” it cried, “give me some drink, Titinius,”
As a sick girl. Ye gods, it doth amaze me” he calls compares Caesar’s cries when he was sick to a small girl. Furthermore he want to persuade Brutus that  him and Brutus are no different than Caesar. And asks him questions such as: “Brutus and Caesar—what should be in that “Caesar”?
Why should that name be sounded more than yours?” He wants Brutus to realise that it can be possible to do something about Caesar and want to build courage and determination in Brutus. “Sound them, it doth become the mouth as well.
Weigh them, it is as heavy. Conjure with ’em.” He goes further in comparing Brutus’ name and Caesar.
