[on Appolonius]
Portia : I'll bet he ran off to fight with the rebel slaves.
Julia : *Those* slaves are not like Appolonius. They aren't educated men with happy homes.
Portia : Well, we had a Morish cook who ran off about a month ago to join the rebels. We heard he had been promoted to commander. From cook to commander! It's so inspiring...
Marcus Brutus : You talk of it as if it's a game, Portia.
Portia : I don't!

Portia : You take the inspiration out of everything!
Marcus Brutus : Rome had to act.
Julia : What do you mean?
Marcus Brutus : Pompey.
