What does Cassius mean when he says Brutus can thank himself for the offending tongue?

The line is "Flatterers! Now, Brutus, thank yourself: This tongue had not offended so to-day, If Cassius might have ruled." in Act V Scene 1. Antony, Octavian, Brutus and Cassius are engaged in the traditional pre-battle shouting match. Antony has just let go with an attack on Brutus and Cassius, calling them flatterers because they sucked up to Caesar while Casca snuck up on him from behind. This is why Cassius says "Flatterers!" Then he turns to speak to Brutus, and says, "This tongue had not offended so today if Cassius might have ruled." "This tongue" is Cassius's tongue and it has, he thinks, offended Antony, so what he is saying is that his tongue would not have offended Antony so much if Cassius had his way. Or possibly it might mean Antony's tongue which has offended Cassius. Either way, what he is talking about is that conversation way back in Act 2 Scene 1 (remember?) where Cassius said "I think it is not meet Mark Antony, so well beloved of Caesar, should outlive Caesar." He means that if Brutus had agreed with Cassius at that point Antony would be dead and would not be around to take or give offence (or, more importantly, to lead an army against them three acts later). Thanks a heap, Brutus. Or in other words, "Now Brutus, thank yourself."

Did anyone admire Cleopatra?

That's a hard question to answer. We get most of our information about Cleopatra from the Roman point of view, which is the view of the victor and so they won't say too many good things about her. However, the ancient writers give her grudging admiration for the fact that she committed suicide as it was considered an honorable way to die in Roman eyes. Then too, Cleopatra was a very wealthy royal. She was in a position to grant favors to people and she more than likely had a lot of flatterers and "fair weather friends" all trying to get favors from her. Her servants and staff certainly were quick to abandon her, as her slave told Octavian that Cleopatra had hidden away some jewels that she was supposed to have turned over to the Romans and her son Caesarion's tutor was the one who turned him in to the Romans.
