Is Caesar truly humble?

            Caesar has the opposition force. The leader of the conspirators is Cassius. He persuades others with that Caesar is ambitious. Caesar`s friend Brutus is also persuaded by Cassius. When Caesar refuses to get coronets from Antony, they believe that is fake and he tries to cheat on Roman citizens. He says, “Choked Caesar; for he swounded and fell down at it. And for mine own part, I durst not laugh, for fear of opening my lips and receiving the bad air” (I ii 247- 250). They think Caesar abuses his humbleness to get citizens` affection and when Caesar is crowned and be a emperor of Rome, he will betray people who help and like him. Antony still believe that Caesar is humble, but not conspirators.
