Betrayal Quote Act III

Quote: Brutus : "Octavius, I have seen more days than you. And though we lay these honors on this man To ease ourselves of divers slanderous loads, He shall but bear them as the ass bears gold, To groan and sweat under the business, Either led or driven, as we point the way. And having brought our treasure where we will, Then take we down his load and turn him off, Like to the empty ass, to shake his ears And graze in commons." Modern meaning.. Octavius I am older than you. Even though we are giving this man all these honors it is just so that he can share some of the blame for what we have done. He is like a jackass carrying our gold-wherever we go he will follow whether pushed or led. Once we are where we want to be we shall set him free and let him graze in the towns pastures like all the other jackasses. Analysis In this quote Brutus' true side is beginning to show. The man who started this play as a man who cared about the people around him is now turning into a man who is just using his people. "To ease ourselves of divers slanderous loads.." This is a very selfish statement coming from Brutus. He is beginning to betray the people of Rome, who he once told where very important to him and he loved each one of them dearly. -Darbit101

Betrayal Poem

The first stanza of the poem of “True Colors” written by Bryan P. Mix, is about life-changing events caused by betrayal. Mix describes a feeling of grief with the lines “feel the intruding lead that hangs my head in pain,” which uses “intruding lead” as a metaphor to convey the strong emotion to the reader. In the second stanza, Mix explains how betrayal affects people negatively even when they were not involved in the act. This relates to Mark Antony and the fact that he was not at the scene of Caesar’s death but was still strongly affected by it and his life was changed by it. Later in the poem, Mix talks about how a traitor may act normal yet again around his or her friends, but they “can never conceal the true colors I saw.” Cassius and Brutus both were friendly to Mark Antony after assassinating Caesar, but Antony reacted parallel to the poem. He rejected their friendship because he cannot forgive their betrayal of Caesar. Spenczar and Phamulous. Mix, Bryan. "True Colors." Web. 1 Apr 2011. .
