While I haven't heard or come across quotes exactly as the one above, many individuals live their lives in correlation with it. Often when individuals are overly stressed or worried, others will use quotes similar to Julius Caesar's to force them to evaluate the situation at hand. "You begin dying the day you were born," is one I have heard often. Or, "live your life like you're going to die, because you are" and, "to really appreciate life you must know you're going to die." I've heard these sort of quotes and responses in situations of risk and bravery. Used as a way to say that if you're going to die anyway, you might as well go skydiving, cliff jumping or put yourself out there in any simple, or significant way. These sort of quotes are also used to show individuals the reality of events in life. In the overall scheme of things, some events are not as important as they sometimes seem. When people are reminded of the truth that they're going to die anyway, they are able to let go of the things that deem insignificant. This then puts in perspective all aspects of their life and can make a difference in philosophy and actions overall.

"Not that I loved Caesar less, but that I loved Rome more" -Brutus

"Not that I loved Caesar less, but that I loved Rome more" -Brutus

Brutus addresses the plebeians and commonfolk after burying a knife into Caesar and this quote elucidates to them why he did such a thing. Its a beautiful quote, one that bleeds with patriotism and a pained heart. Brutus loved Caesar, he was Brutus' friend and companion. However Brutus saw that Caesar was becoming more and more powerful. Caesar intended to overthrow the senate of Rome and become the sole ruler of the empire. This was halted by a group of senators that had no choice but to remove Caesar by force. One of these men was none other than Brutus. They killed Caesar in the name of Rome, no matter how much anguish it caused them. I've no doubt Brutus was a bit emotional at this point, especially with Caesar's tragic words "Et tu Brute?"

I've never heard this phrase before (as far as my memory serves), and I don't think I've ever heard a different iteration of the quote uttered in more modern relevance, however the message it puts across is most definitely one of familiarity. As I said earlier, the main message put across is that Brutus would do anything to ensure what's best for his country, even killing his best friend. I hold this same philosophy. My opinion on the United States is unwavering. The core values surrounding our country inspire me with a sense of pride for the nation we live in and the values stay the same no matter who's in charge. America represents freedom, freedom to live and make a life for yourself. This isn't to say I'll blindly support whoever rules America, nor would I kill anyone who takes office and may not be the best choice for the country. I do my homework, I figure out what would help the country and what would hinder it, and I choose my candidate. I want what's best for this country and Brutus and I have that in common. No matter what, its our country that gets put first.

This philosophy rings similar to Edward Snowden on why he leaked government secrets. In an interview with John Oliver Snowden remarked that his country is something he carries with him wherever he is, and he sacrificed life as he knew it for the American people, so they could know what capabilities their government really had. Not that he loved his government less, but that he loved its people more.

This ideal seems to be common in many forms of extremists over the course of history, Charlotte Corday, a French Revolutionary Assassin remarked "I killed one man to save 100,000" which is a variation on this quote. Not that she loved her target less, but that she loved France more.

In Taylor Swift's recent music video for her song "Look What You Made Me Do" she sits on a throne, and engraved on the throne are the words "Et tu, Brute?" She is referring to how Kanye West, her friend, "stabs her in the back." This suggests that Taylor trusted Kanye and wouldn't expect him to turn her back on her as well. The phrase "even you" is used frequently without the understanding of where the origination lies. It is often referred to in the same context as someone getting turned on. The references are often connected without even understanding why.

"But, for my own part, it was Greek to me

"But, for my own part, it was Greek to me

# data[].attributes.body
I've heard pieces of many of these quotes before, but have really only heard them used in movies or other pieces of literature. One of the quotes that I've heard the most is "But, for my own part, it was Greek to me." The phrase means that something was difficult to understand. In a movie, I've heard it used as a character is examining a map and says that "it's all Greek to me." The context of the quote, in the sense of the play, is that the characters would probably recognize, at least vaguely, something in Greek but wouldn't actually know what it meant. Therefore, the quote also suggests that something can look familiar, but still not make much sense. The phrase can ring true for everybody because everyone has experienced a situation where something looks familiar, but they can't comprehend it or where something just doesn't make sense at all.

This quote is referenced in the Disney movie Aladdin, when the genie is looking through a cook book on how to make Aladdin a prince. The genie could make Aladdin look like Julius Caesar, or a Caesar Salad- the genie is wearing a toga and aural reef and says, " Y tu Brute," and stabs the book with a knife, but chooses not too because he knows Caesar ultimately gets back stabbed and he doesn't want Aladdin to have the same fate. The quote illustrates how characters get back stabbed by their closest friends.

“Now let it work. Mischief, thou art afoot. Take thou what course thou wilt.” ― William Shakespeare, Julius Caesar

I have heard this quote before mostly because if the second section: "Mischief, thou art afoot." I have heard this phrase or something similar in movies and books when the pieces suggest that an issue has come into play that will require the characters to see what happens in the scenario. I believe I have also heard my father say it when he's joking around with my little brother when he tries to scare him, especially when he fails because he was too loud. This usage is largely of the center part of the quote, however. This quote suggests that trouble has been started, and that one will have to wait and see what happens. It also has connotations of whoever is stating the quote is responsible, in part, for the "mischief" especially in regards to all aspects of the quote, This can ring true for others because others have likely experienced or potentially caused some trouble, like a prank, and waited to see what would happen and how others would react. This quote suggests that one has started some trouble, and will have to wait and see what results from that trouble.
