How does Brutus compare Caesar and Antony? O Antony is only powerful as long as Caesar is alive.
Caesar is only powerful because of Antony's loyalty.
O Antony is more powerful than Caesar.
Caesar and Antony are equally powerful.

Antony is only powerful as long as Caesar is alive.

Explanation:

Brutus objects to killing Mark Antony because once they kill Caesar, Mark Antony is harmless, it will be too much bloodshed, and Mark Antony will not gain power. The line that explains his objection is "For he can do no more than Caesar's arm when Caesar's head is off".

Brutus compares Caesar to the egg of a serpent “which, hatched, would as his kind grow mischievous”; thus, he determines to “kill him in the shell” (II.i.33–34).
