Pride and overconfidence can largely influence …

Julius Caesar was one of the famous generals of Rome. He conquered many kingdoms and gave all the wealth for his citizens. He even denied the throne thrice and opted to be a general rather than the emperor. This shows that his intentions were good and he meant no harm to anyone. However, his pride and overconfidence became the reason for his downfall. When Calpurnia told him about the bad omen, he simply didn't accept it. He was overconfident that nothing would go wrong and his proud self didn't even accept what the Priest had told him : to not step out today as bad things would happen. If he had listened to the Priest and his wife instead of listening to Decius who was in fact appealing to his pride and overconfidence, he wouldn't have died that day. Hence the statement "Pride and Overconfidence can largely influence one's doom" is justified

Calpurnia aptly tells"your wisdom is consumed in confidence," . Finally, Caesar agrees to stay at home, accepting it was calpurnia 's fear, not his, to stay at home. But, Decius Brutus-the manipulator, enters the scene, misinterpreted the dream so that it appeals to Caesar's pride, and take him to the Senate. (Include Decius Brutus interpretation) finally, Caesar's slayed

Yes. The line is absolutely true. Bcoz when calpurnia was stopping Caesar he was do confident that nobody can defeat him not even the danger itself... But alas he was attacked by the conspirators and was defeated due to his overconfidence...
