Cassius observes that Brutus has seemed aloof lately. Brutus assures Cassius that he shouldn’t take this personally; he is distracted by his own thoughts, “with himself at war.” Cassius replies that he wishes Brutus could see his own “hidden worthiness,” which so many prominent Romans recognize. Brutus fears that Cassius is trying to lead him astray, but Cassius assures him that he’s no flatterer, and Brutus should trust his perspective. Brutus has a self-reflective, principle-driven personality. Cassius, on the other hand seems to be motivated solely by self-interest, and he knows how to subtly manipulate a conversation. Here, rather than blatantly flattering Brutus, he appeals to Brutus’s sense of responsibility for the welfare of Rome as a whole. The Lupercalia race has ended. Brutus points out to Cassius that Caesar, Calpurnia, and Cicero look angry and distraught. Meanwhile, Caesar tells Antony that he wishes he were surrounded by “fat,” satisfied men, unlike Cassius, who has a “lean and hungry” look—that is, he’s dangerous. Nevertheless, Caesar doesn’t fear him, “for always I am Caesar.” Join this channel to get access to perks:    / @bbamayanksir  .
