The soldiers are looking on; their commanders should not argue in public. The line comes from Act IV Scene 2


When Brutus delivers a soliloquy at the end of Act?

In the beginning of the play, Brutus is trusted by Caesar, and they have a filial sort of relationship. But Brutus plays a large role in Caesar's assassination. Caesar's dying words are, "Et tu, Brute?" (you too, Brutus?) because he can hardly believe that someone he loved and was close to would murder him. Brutus reasons, "Not that I loved Caesar less, but I loved Rome more." He thinks that killing Caesar was for the greater good, and if you've read the play, you would realize that Brutus's fatal flaw is his nobility. He overthinks everything, always searching for the noble, honorable, "right" thing to do. It was also mentioned that perhaps Brutus was truly Caesar's son, of an affair. At Brutus's funeral oration, Antony says Brutus was "Caesar's angel," although it is never blatantly explained why Caesar trusts and loves Brutus so much, then is betrayed. Although Brutus's honor to Caesar is strong in the beginning, it wavers enough for him to take part in Caesar's murder, but then he sees the effects because of it. By the end of the play, Brutus sees that Rome in the hands of Antony, Octavius, etc is worse than it would have been under Caesar's ruling, and Brutus commits suicide. Note that this question does not have anything to do with the question. The question entails the relationship between BRUTUS and CASSIUS, while this answer is telling the relationship between Brutus and Caeser.


What does Brutus ask Cassius that lets the reader know his true feelings.?

This is silly. Any question Brutus asks tells us something about his feelings. But exactly what it tells us depends on how he asks it, what his tone of voice is, etc. For example, in Act 1 scene 1 Brutus asks, "Into what dangers would you lead me, Cassius, that you would have me seek into myself for that which is not in me?" How does he say this line? Is it a joke, two brothers-in-law kidding around? Maybe Brutus does believe that he has the qualities of a leader, but wishes to appear modest. Maybe he says this as a rebuke, seriously believing that Cassius is intending to get him into trouble. There are many possible ways of playing this and most lines.Look at this line: "What means this shouting?" He suspects that they are choosing Caesar as a king. Is he curious? Frightened? Angry? Annoyed? It depends on how you play it.Here is the most important thing about Shakespeare's Julius Caesar: it was not meant to be read, except by actors who would then perform it. It was meant to be heard and watched, not read. That is why your question is silly.
