You souls of geese, that bear the shapes of men, how have you run from slaves that apes would men!

You souls of geese, that bear the shapes of men, how have you run from slaves that apes would men!

The line "You souls of geese, that bear the shapes of men, how have you run from slaves that apes would men!" is from William Shakespeare's play "Julius Caesar." These words are spoken by the character Cassius in Act 1, Scene 2, as he is trying to convince Brutus to join the conspiracy to assassinate Caesar.
