Act II

If I were trying to convince Brutus to join the conspiracy I would pretty much tell him the same things the ret of the sonsiraters did. About how Caesar was not any better than he was, and remind him of his deep love for the Roman Republic. Also how he would in turn be saving Rome.

Caesar Theme

Patriotism never goes unpaid for.

Brutus loved Rome so much that he was willing and driven to to murder one of his dearest friends. Yet, it wasn't that easy because in the end he killed his own self while at battle.
