From Shakespeare Julius Caesar 5.1.79-90 Coming from Sardis, on our former ensign, two mighty eagles fell, and there they perched, gorging and feeding from our soldiers hands, who to Philippi here consorted us. This morning are they fled away and gone, and in their steads do ravens, crows, and kites fly oer our heads and downward look on us as we were sickly prey, their shadows seem a canopy most fatal under which our army lies, ready to give up the ghost.

Julius Caesar had changed the nature of the Roman empire, he had swept away the old, corrupt system of the late Roman republic and had set an example to future Roman emperors as well as other future European leaders to live up to.
Our purpose necessary and not envious: Which so appearing to the common eyes, We shall be call'd purgers, not murderers. And for Mark Antony, think not of him; For he can do no more than Caesar's arm When Caesar's head is off. It must be by his death: and for my part, I know no personal cause to spurn at him, But for the general. He would be crown'd: How that might change his nature, there's the question. And after this let Caesar seat him sure; For we will shake him, or worse days endure. And why should Caesar be a tyrant then? Poor man! I know he would not be a wolf, But that he sees the Romans are but sheep: He were no lion, were not Romans hinds. Those that with haste will make a mighty fire Begin it with weak straws: what trash is Rome, What rubbish and what offal, when it serves For the base matter to illuminate So vile a thing as Caesar! It is no matter; let no images Be hung with Caesar's trophies. I'll about, And drive away the vulgar from the streets: So do you too, where you perceive them thick. These growing feathers pluck'd from Caesar's wing Will make him fly an ordinary pitch, Who else would soar above the view of men And keep us all in servile fearfulness. Wherefore rejoice? What conquest brings he home? What tributaries follow him to Rome, To grace in captive bonds his chariot-wheels? You blocks, you stones, you worse than senseless things!

I believe it was "The Mighty Julius Caesar".
Many things can be drawn from Julius Caesar\'s personality. He was fearless, mighty and loyal among other things.
Marcus Brutus on line 95 of Act 5 Scene 3 of Julius Caesar ;D
Mark Antony addresses these words to the conspirators who killed Caesar. He says that as they have killed the mighty Caesar, who accomplished many great tasks, and conquered great empires, the conspirators are now responsible for the working of Rome. They have the choice, the power and are the masters of what to do next in Rome. He requests them to kill him too, as he realizes no hour is more fit and no place more apt than being killed along with his master and friend, the great Julius Caesar.
Cassis blames the Romans for being so weak, therefore allowing Caesar to be as powerful as he is.CASSIUSAnd why should Caesar be a tyrant then?Poor man! I know he would not be a wolfBut that he sees the Romans are but sheep.He were no lion were not Romans hinds.Those that with haste will make a mighty fireBegin it with weak straws. What trash is Rome,What rubbish and what offal, when it servesFor the base matter to illuminateSo vile a thing as Caesar! But, O grief,Where hast thou led me? I perhaps speak thisBefore a willing bondman. Then I knowMy answer must be made. But I am armed,And dangers are to me indifferent.

Julius Caesar did not fight at the Battle of Philippi (42 BC). He died two years earlier (44 BC). It was his assassination which led to this battle in which Octavian and Mark Antony defeated Brutus and Crassus. Brutus could not have said anything about the fighting spirit of Marc Antony and Octavian because he committed suicide when he saw that surrender and capture were inevitable. In Shakespeare's play, Brutus was spoken to by the ghost of Caesar. Brutus says that he would have liked to talk to Caesar more but the ghost vanished. He acts afraid and says that Caesar is still mighty and great.
That he is mighty and fearful. _____________________________ It is foreshadowing by Cassius. Into the storm or Caesar's death that is to come. We learn he is superstitious.
He is the first Emperor of Rome. He was the first leader of the Roman Empire. He was a mighty warrior and military leader as well as a very popular political figure. His nephew, Augustus became the famous Ceasar Augustus who ruled the empire the longest and prosided over Rome's years of peace - the Pax Romana.
