I would go with:
A theme is best written as statement because a theme is main thing of a story, the author could also use a statement in a story to make it seem more alive or more real.
I Hope my answer worked for you :)
Brutus is a tragic hero as his judgement of error in killing Caesar leads to his downfall but he is an inherently good man.
Explanation:
Brutus is an enigmatic character in the play as he joins the conspiracy and drags the dagger into the heart of Caesar yet he has love for him and torments himself for doing it.
He does not kill Caesar eventually because he hates him, he mentions repeatedly that he likes him and thinks of him as a great man and as a friend .
He does so because he thinks this is what will be good for Rome and as a patriot it is his responsibility to do this for the nation.
He torments himself for the act and realizes eventually that it has done more harm than good, making him die in the end as his fall is tragic and follows the classical principles.
To be brave means to continue to fight for what you believe and pursue your dreams in the face of opposition, trials and even threats to life.
For example, In Malala's speech, she said, "Dear Friends, on the 9th of October 2012, the Taliban shot me on the left side of my forehead. They shot my friends too. They thought that the bullets would silence us. But they failed. And then, out of that silence came, thousands of voices. The terrorists thought that they would change our aims and stop our ambitions but nothing changed in my life except this: Weakness, fear and hopelessness died. Strength, power and courage was born. I am the same Malala. My ambitions are the same. My hopes are the same. My dreams are the same."
This means that she has dedicated her life to preaching peace, education, human right and equality, not minding her own insecurity or whatever persecution she faces for what she believes. This is her definition of bravery, boldness and courage.
