Hamlets turning point is when his sister kills herself by drowning. (Although i believe it may be his lover, her craziness and grieving confused me) . Anyway reality hits him a little and that's when just about everyone dies, as all shakespeare's tragedies turn out.<span />
A hyperbole is basically an exaggeration.
So:
"College is literally the best thing on the face of the planet!"
Because he was willing to trade his golden watch or sacrafice it for her before she cut her hair and even after she cut her hair he still loved her so their love was not skin deep
Brutus relies heavily on his own conscience and will not agree to do anything unless he completely believes in the cause. This is why it takes so long for Cassius to convince him to kill Caesar. Eventually though, he believes that their cause is right and therefore goes into the murder with a clear conscience.
He also keeps the other men (especially Cassius) in check while planning the murder, because his conscience is so strong. He says "Let us be sacrificers, but not butchers, Caius." He is making sure they stay on track and are doing things for noble reasons, not just blindly killing.
This is why he refuses to let Cassius plan to kill Antony as well as Caesar, because he does not feel Antony has done anything wrong.
