Honor is like a sword because its point is to stand for something you're passionate about.
Honor is a crown that's only fit for those who are worthy of it.

Alternate Ending
Cassius and Brutus wouldn't kill themselves at the end of the play. Instead of killing themselves they go the less honorable way. They decide to fight against the people who are with Mark Anthony. They fight only to show that they persistant and care about what they believe in. They get their point across and die in battle. All of the men left say that Bruttus was a very honorable man because he was always with Caesar till he decideed to go with Casssius.

Act 4 quotation
(Original) Brutus: Remember March, the ides of March remember. Did not great Julius bleed for justice' sake? What villain touched his body, that did stab, And not for justice? What, shall one of us That struck the foremost man of all this world But for supporting robbers, shall we now Contaminate our fingers with base bribes, And sell the mighty space of our large honors For so much trash as may be grasped thus? I had rather be a dog and bay the moon Than such a Roman. (Modern) Brutus: Remember March, remember March 15th. Didn't the great Julius die for the sake of justice? Who would kill him, if not for justice? What, did one of us kill the greatest man in the world to support robbers? And now are we going to dirty our hands by accepting bribes and selling our great offices for money? I'd rather be a dog howling at the moon than be that kind of dirty Roman. (Analysis) Brutus is saying this to Cassius while they are bickering back and forth in their tent. I believe that this quote of Brutus' relates to honor. Brutus is saying that they need to honor their reason for killing Caesar. Their reason was for justice, for Rome. So if they start accepting bribes and becoming such lowly men, then Julius shouldn't have died. Brutus is saying that he is honorable enough to have never taken these bribes and that he would rather be a dog than do that.

Julius Caesar honor song
Honor by Atreyu
http://artists.letssingit.com/atreyu-lyrics-honor-x1fmm7l
This song relates to honor because it talks about how honor can be obtained which is a method that it seems like Caesar took. He didn't hold anything back and gave each of his endeavors his all. Caesar persisted in conquering and it ultimately paid off. No matter how much someone disliked Caesar, they had no choice but to honor him. It was law.
"All hail Caear." This phrase was all too common back in the day. Although some looked at Caesar as a god, others looked at him as any other man. That shows that some have a lack of honor. Brutus and Cassius however outshine all others lacking respect with their mischievous plotting. Caesar trusts both of these men and they are plotting to overthrow him behind his back.

Honor Poem
When the Rightous are Unclean
No one has the honor to stand up for what they've seen. The innocents fall as early as their teens. Collapsing under the weight of a tyrant, forcing them to their knees.
And yet im seen as a pariah because i refuse to let them proceed. Im using me to further their blackened seeds.
But the fearfull see us as the same. Because i take the fight to the oppressor as violently as he takes it to me. For the only way to defeat a monster is by setting your own free.
And the war that commences is one the cowards wont impede. Hoping i slay their demons so the bloody waters recede. Though i stand victorious i walk alone as i slowly bleed.
As those who lack courage judge my actions obscene. I then speak aloud to those present and the ones who remain unseen. Before you point your fingers, make sure your hands are clean.
For he who does not punish evil commands it to be free.
By: Warrior Poet
This poem relates to Julius Caesar in many ways, on both "sides." There are lines that represent himself and many lines that can be shown as the conspirators. In the play, Julius has a lot of people against him that makes him a pariah and he doesnt even know it. That line fits perfectly because they don't like how he rules and think he isn't fit for it. At time it seems that Julius Caesar is alone but in his own eyes he stands victorious despite the conspirator's views. This refering to line that says," Though I stand victorious I walk alone as I slowly bleed." Caesar is being honorable not only to himself but his land as well as he sticks to his word and does what he thinks is right.
The last line of the poem says, " For he does not punish evil commands it to be free." This line realtes perfectly to the conspirators. They feel that Caesar is the wrong choice and will lead Rome to failure. They are doing everything they can do to get him out of power. Conspirators aren't worried about Caesar's honor they are just concerned about the future of Rome. They do not believe the decisions that Caesar is making are made for the better whole.
