Et tu, Brute!



Though Caesar was shocked when Brutus stabbed him though Antony explained his deed:


This was the noblest Roman of them all:

All the conspirators save only he

Did that they did in envy of great Caesar;

He only, in a general honest thought

And common good to all, made one of them.

His life was gentle, and the elements

So mix'd in him that Nature might stand up

And say to all the world 'This was a man!'



Debate may never end - was Brutus right or wrong? But it tells us that truth is very relative, and that's what drives and carves the babel of human history.
