To whom? Caesar's so-called last words perhaps are significant to students studying Shakespeare, but that's about all. The reason for this is that we don't know what his last words actually were. Even the ancient writers admit that they don't know for certain and the killers were certainly not about to tell what they were as it would be a sign of their guilt if they said anything.
