Play
Julius Caesar by William Shakespear
Caesar
Cowards die many times before their deaths; the valiant never taste of death but once. Of all the wonders that I yet have heard. It seems to me most strange that men should fear; seeing that death, a necessary end, will come when it will come.
Servent
They would not have you stir forth to-day.Plucking the entrails of an offering forth. They could not find a heart within the beast.
Caesar
The gods do this in shame of cowardice: Caesar should be a beast without a heart,If he should stay at home to-day for fear. No, Caesar shall not: danger knows full well That Caesar is more dangerous than he: We are two loins litter'd in one day, And I the elder and more terrible: And Caesar shall go forth.
