Brutus speech would have convinced me more because Brutus is a noble man. His reasons for murdering Caesar seem to be valid. Also, he says: “I did love Caesar, but I loved Rome more.” When Brutus says this, it makes me feel his patriotism and that Brutus puts his loyalty for his country above his friendship. Brutus said he was willng to kill himself for the sake of Rome. When he says this, it makes me feel loved, grateful, that Brutus cares about me personally. Also, here he uses the use of pathos.
