This is the right inference.

Brutus decides to join the conspiracy against Caesar because he fears that Caesar will become ruthless once he has absolute power.

Explanation:

This is one of the most poignant passages in the book that reflect on the nature of power.

IT is never known if Caesar will have or will not have become something along the lines of what Brutus says he would here but one can clearly understand why he would think that could be.

Brutus means that absolute power can change a person beyond what they ever wanted to be and hence it is dangerous.

This is why he decides t kill Caesar.

The theme depicted through Juliet's monologue is B: Love is powerful.

The reason behind this is that Juliet asks Romeo if he loves her and says that if he says "yes" she will believe it but if he swears he does, he may be lying. She asks Romeo that if he really loves her, he must say it truly. This is how she explains that love is powerful.

Is "Yes, he was stone, stone dead." Is that a simile metaphor personification or a hyperbole?

Elden [556K]

Pretty sure its a simile. It cant be personification because it says “he” which refers to a living and breathing human. I don’t think it would be a hyperbole because hyperboles are an over exaggerated description. It doesn’t use like or as, so i would say in this case simile.
