Question

Please help! I need a starting point on writing an essay about the book Julius Caesar, specifically about how too much ambition leads to one's destruction. You don't need to write a full essay, maybe some fitting quotes, topic sentences, and/or how to elaborate on the thesis statement more. Thank you!

Answer 1

Answer:

Hey! Haven't read much of this book before, but hope this helps!

Explanation

The most contagious and destructive disease to plague the human race is greed.

"There is a sufficiency for a man's need but not for man's greed." Mahatma Gandhi.

"Selfishness and greed, individual or national, cause most of our troubles." Harry Truman.

For your thesis statement, I would highly suggest going out of the box. The traditional "I believe ....." can become redundant and quite awkward in some essays, so I would recommend maybe starting with "In the book Julius Caesar, ______ are the themes portrayed." Feel free to add on or use syonyms, but hope this helps!
