Why does Caesar insist on going out to the Senate? Which aspect of Caesar's character is revealed by his action?

In Shakespeare's play Julius Caesar, there are many omens and warnings that should have prevented Caesar from going to the Senate that day. First, he was warned by a soothsayer to "beware the Ides of March." Then, his wife Calpurnia has a bad dream that Caesar was murdered. Other bad omens have presented themselves as well.

However, Caesar vows to go anyway. He ignores his wife's pleading and says that "<span>Cowards die many times before their deaths. </span><span>The valiant never taste of death but once." This shows his pride -- he is not a coward and he will not be taken for one.

At last, however, Calpurnia convinces him to stay home. When Decius comes to deliver a message to the Senate, Caesar makes it clear that he he CAN go -- he is choosing not to go. Again, this shows his pride, as he does not want to appear sick or weak.

But then Decius provides some powerful news: he tells Caesar that Senate was to crown him that day. Although this is an outright lie told to Caesar just to get him out of the house, Caesar is swayed by the promise of more power. This shows his greed for power, or his ambition. Had he not cared so much about a crown, he would have stayed home that day and likely kept his life.

Decius also implies that, if Caesar waits, the Senate might change their mind. He also hints that the Senate will laugh at Caesar and think him scared since he was so easily swayed by his wife's nightmares. Hearing these words, Caesar is convinced. He will now allow others to think of him as weak or scared. He tells Calpurnia he is going. And, although he does not know it, he will never return home again.

Write A paragraph about the benefits of construction.
egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

Although you may not think about it but there are many benefits of construction, now let me show you why. You may think that you don’t use that many things that construction workers build but nowadays people depend on a numerous number of things that they need or use in their daily life such as a home to live in or even a road to get to work or just to travel as is. You may not think about it but most of the things that you use on a daily bias are built by construction workers like an apartment complex or traffic lights keeping you from crashing or they even build something that other people need so that you can use like a bank that stores your money or even a cell phone tower that helps you with calls. People rely on construction workers to build them comfortable homes, safe roads, and bridges, and strong buildings that they will admire and use for many years to come. Construction is helping the economy grow and the construction workers are the reason why that’s possible. How many professionals in other industries can point at the brand-new hospital in town and say, “I helped build that”? Whether it’s a road, a home, a sewage system or a school, the things you build matter to the people in your community.

My mother she is nice correct or incorrect
Airida [17]

The provided sentence "My mother she is nice" is incorrect for a few reasons. First of all, the sentence does not end in a period. Second of all, you would not say <em>My kitten she is playful.</em> would you? no, you would not. When speaking in English, you do not place a noun (a person in this case) next to a pronoun since you already have the noun to identify the character with.
