Is Brutus the noblest Roman of them all?
Brutus professes the Stoic philosophy and tries to make his character fit the principles instead of adapting the rules to his character. At heart, he is gentleman - we witness his compassion for Lucius, his real love for his wife, even his love for Caesar. He is trusting to the point of guillibity, which blinds him to his own mistaken judgements.....was Brutus doomed to fail?
Respond to above using substantiation from the text.
