Important Lines *MLA format
“Stand not to answer. Her take now the hilts and when my face is covered as tis now guide thou sword,” Cassius to Pindarus (Julius Caesar V.iii). Cassius tells Pindarus to stab him with his sword, rather than the honorable way of a Roman military death of stabbing yourself. Therefore, Cassius died dishonorably, a large significance at the time period of Rome.

“Cassius I shall find time. Come, therefore, and to Thasos send his body. His funeral shall not be at our camp,” Brutus on the subject of Cassius's death (Julius Caesar V.iii). Brutus clearly states that a funeral will be held for Cassius at a later time after the war. Brutus feels it is most important to move on with battle.

“The last of all the Romans, fare thee well,” Brutus to Cato and Messala (Julius Caesar V.iii). Brutus says that the Roman Empire came to an end following Cassius's death. From here on, Rome has ceased to exist.

Character Development

 * Cassius**- Dies dishonorably, through misconception of who had the upper hand in the wars


 * Titinius**- Commits suicide after Cassius's lead


 * Pindarus**- Slave, freed after killing Cassius upon orders


 * Messala**- Tells Titinius to go find Pindarus, leads to Titinius's death


 * Brutus**- Notes Cassius's death, but ultimately moves on with the war

Motifs
Misreading signs results in death/tragedy Misconception leads to death- Cassius thinks the battle is lost so he kills himself even though he is actually winning Dying with someone else- Titinius kills himself because Cassius is dead

Private
Cassius- He believes that opposing side (Mark Antony) in the war has the upper hand, which is false. He has a misconception of which side had more supremacy. So afraid to admit defeat that he wants to get someone to kill him. He is supposed to run up to the sword that Pindarus is holiding to die an honorable death however Pindarus runs into him causing Cassius to die without honor.

Public
Brutus- So involved with fighting for his cause that he partially forgets the person that got him into the war in the first place, Cassius. Brutus is too much focused on winning the war for his cause that he shows no emotions towards Cassius' death.

Spirit/Legacy of Caesar
Caesar's spirit indirectly causes the death of Cassius because of the misconception he had for the war. If there was no war for Caesar the conspirators/murderers would not be brought to justice.
