Best Answer

Brutus didn't want anybody killed. He didn't really want to kill Caesar even, but it was the only way he could think of to try to fix what he perceived as the problems of the state. He misjudged Antony and thought that he was a mere hanger-on and dependant and that he would wither away without Caesar to support him.

Brutus spares Antony because he doesn't want to further inflame the populace, and thinks that Antony, as Caesar's friend, can make the citizens understand why Caesar was killed. However, he has underestimated Antony, who turns his speech from one of support for the assassins to one that sets Rome against them. Antony reinforces his position of power in Rome and Brutus must flee.

What did Caesar mean by his final words to Brutus?

Historically, it is said that Julius Caesar made no sound while his peers murdered him except for a grunt at the first stab. He died silently, and with betrayed dignity. However, in Shakespeare's play, it is said that Julius Caesar says, "Et tu, Brute?" ("And you, Brutus?") right before he falls to the ground dead. Brutus was someone Julius Caesar considered a friend, and this quote channels the emotion that he must have felt in his last moments. However, this is merely Shakespeare's interpretation.
