Dallas · Answer 2

The statement that best contrasts the character of Cassius with the character of Antony is option D. Cassius is willing to deceive to get ahead, while Antony is loyal and honorable. In "Julius Caesar", by William Shakespeare, Cassius is very ambitious and envious of Caesar's power. He manipulates Brutus into the conspiracy because Brutus is noble and respected. On the contrary, Antony is loyal to Caesar, and he wants the people of Rome to feel angry for Caesar's assassination.
