BRUTUS. It must be by his death: and for my part I know no personal cause to spurn at him

But for the general. He would be crowned:

How that might change his nature, there’s the question.

It is the bright day that bring forth the adder,

And that craves wary walking. Crown him that,

And then I grant we put a sting in him

That at his will he may do danger with.

Th’abuse of greatness is when it disjoins

Remorse from power. And to speak truth of Caesar,

I have not known when his affections swayed

More than his reason. But 'tis a common proof

That lowliness is young ambition’s ladder,

Whereto the climber-upward turns his face;

But when he once attains the upmost round,

He then unto the ladder turns his back,

Looks in the clouds, scorning the base degrees

By which he did ascend. So Caesar may.

Then lest he may, prevent. And since the quarrel

Will bear no colour for the thing he is,

Fashion it thus: that what he is, augmented,

Would run to these and these extremities;

And therefore think him as a serpent’s egg

Which, hatched, would as his kind grow mischievous,

And kill him in the shell.

–The Tragedy of Julius Caesar,
William Shakespeare
