Astriola. That IS demon pox. You had evidence that demon pox existed and you didnt mention it to me! Et tu, Brute!' He rolled up the paper and hit Jem over the head with it.
Cassandra Clare (Clockwork Prince (The Infernal Devices, #2))
Et tu, Brute?
William Shakespeare (Julius Caesar)
And that is the reason why a young buck with an intelligent looking calf's head before him, is somehow one of the saddest sights you can see. The head looks a sort of reproachfully at him, with an "Et tu Brute!" expression.
Herman Melville (Moby Dick: or, the White Whale)
Caesar’s final words, though, were not ‘Et tu, Brute?’, in spite of what Shakespeare would have you believe. He actually spoke his last words in Greek: ‘Kai su, teknon?’ – ‘Even you, my son?
Natalie Haynes (The Ancient Guide to Modern Life)
Le Goût du néant Morne esprit, autrefois amoureux de la lutte, L’Espoir, dont l’épéron attisait ton ardeur, Ne veut plus t’enfourcher! Couche-toi sans pudeur, Vieux cheval dont le pied à chaque obstacle bute. Résigne-toi, mon coeur; dors ton sommeil de brute. Esprit vaincu, fourbu! Pour toi, vieux maraudeur, L’amour n’a plus de goût, non plus que la dispute; Adieu donc, chants du cuivre et soupirs de la flûte! Plaisirs, ne tentez plus un coeur sombre et boudeur! Le Printemps adorable a perdu son odeur! Et le Temps m’engloutit minute par minute, Comme la neige immense un corps pris de roideur; Je contemple d’en haut le globe en sa rondeur Et je n’y cherche plus l’abri d’une cahute. Avalance, veux-tu m’emporter dans ta chute?
Charles Baudelaire (Les Fleurs du Mal)
As he fell, Caesar cried out in Greek to Brutus, ‘You too, child’, which was either a threat (‘I’ll get you, boy!’) or a poignant regret for the disloyalty of a young friend (‘You too, my child?’), or even, as some suspicious contemporaries imagined, a final revelation that Brutus was, in fact, his victim’s natural son and that this was not merely assassination but patricide. The famous Latin phrase ‘Et tu, Brute?’ (‘You too, Brutus?’) is an invention of Shakespeare’s.
Mary Beard (SPQR: A History of Ancient Rome)
Dès que le brouhaha s’apaise, les premières mesures du morceau suivant s’élèvent, profondes et lentes. Les tintements du triangle et des grelots résonnent, clairs échos du rythme grave des percussions. Alors, Anja se met à chanter. Tes yeux secs cherchent de l’eau dans cette ville morte Tes pieds en sang abreuvent la terre assoiffée Tu tombes et ne peux plus te lever… Elle vibre, exaltée comme chaque fois par la foule et le chant, flot d’émotions brutes, partagées, échangées avec ses compagnons, avec le public. Tressaillement soudain. Sensation moite et glacée. Un goût âcre envahit sa bouche, un goût de bile et de peur mêlées. Quelqu’un, au milieu de la foule, l’observe. Un regard glisse lentement sur elle, insistant, insidieux, pareil à la langue d’une bête répugnante sur sa peau. Celui qui la traque, l’épie depuis plusieurs semaines se trouve dans la foule ce soir, ombre sournoise et anonyme. La sirène tente d’apercevoir un visage, de surprendre la fixité d’une expression, en vain. Dans la salle, les yeux des spectateurs sont pareilles à des billes de ténèbres opaques, angoissantes. « Qui est-ce ? » « Que veut-il ? » « Est-ce que je le connais ? » « Est-ce lui, le responsable des disparitions ? » « A-t-il un lien avec cette momie ? » « Suis-je sa prochaine cible ? » Ces questions angoissantes, obsédantes, tournent en boucle dans sa tête, brisant la magie du concert. Anja parvient à faire bonne figure, interprète même une mélodie réclamée par le public. Mais se sent terriblement soulagée quand le concert s’achève. Stein repousse ses percussions dans un coin, salue ses deux amies d’un rapide signe de main et quitte la scène. Fast l’attend à l’autre bout de la salle bondée, accoudé au bar. Celui-ci, une antiquité rescapée du Cataclysme, consolidée par des planches de bois peintes, des plaques de tôles et d’épais morceaux de plastique, est la fierté de Senta, la propriétaire des lieux. Il a résisté aux tempêtes, aux pillards, aux siècles et porte comme autant de cicatrices gravées dans sa surface, les traces de milliers de vies.
Charlotte Bousquet (Les Chimères de l'aube (La Peau des rêves, #3))
Why do they want Rathenau tonight? What did Caesar really whisper to his protégé as he fell? Et tu, Brute, the official lie, is about what you'd expect to get from them - it says exactly nothing. The moment of assassination is the moment when power and the ignorance of power come together, with Death as its validator. When one speaks to the other then it is not to pass the time of day with et-tu-Brutes. What passes is a truth so terrible that history - at best a conspiracy, not always among gentlemen, to defraud - will never admit it. The truth will be repressed or in ages of particular elegance be disguised as something else. What will Rathenau, past the moment, years into new otherside existence, have to say about the old dispensation? Probably nothing as incredible as what he might have said just as the shock flashed his mortal nerves, as the Angel swooped in...
Thomas Pynchon (Gravity’s Rainbow)
Et tu, Brute?” (meaning “Even you, Brutus?”)

Everyone marries eventually.” Ollie slid a glittering dragonfly hairpin into her curls. “Et tu, Brute?” I shook my head at her.

Thomas Pynchon (Gravity’s Rainbow)
But only the English would insist on two separate versions of Gainsborough’s checkout line. Or even have the chutzpah to suggest it. Julius Caesar didn’t say “Et tu, Brute?” and “Where’s the Praetorian guard when you really need them?” John Wilkes Booth didn’t shriek “Sic semper tyrannis” and “Other than that, Mrs. Lincoln, how’d you like the play?
Joe Queenan (Queenan Country: A Reluctant Anglophile's Pilgrimage to the Mother Country)
ESPE: So, in both conversations, Lama Sangyay steers you away from thinking directly about Epifanio or your relationship (or lack thereof) and right into the nature of your mind. So masterful. CLARA: Isn't he? I hate those instructions. I do not want to do those contemplations. I want Epifanio! ESPE [laughing]: Of course you do. How does it feel to want? CLARA: "Et tu, Brute?" ESPE: Oh, sí, Señora. ¡Yo también!

Et tu, Brute?" 
Sherrie Dawn (Consider It Pure Joy (Heart of the Home, #1))
Jefferson inwardly reviled Hamilton as a traitor to republican government. “What a fatal stroke at the cause of liberty; et tu Brute,” he wrote in his diary.
Ron Chernow (Alexander Hamilton)
Astriola,” he said. “That is demon pox. You had evidence that demon pox existed and you didn’t mention it to me! Et tu, Brute!” He rolled up the paper and hit Jem over the head with it.

Amie Kaufman (Obsidio (The Illuminae Files, #3))
Tapi, aku tak ingin menjadi dekat dengan siapa pun, atau bahkan menpercayainya. Brutus pun bisa membunuh Julius Caesar, bukan? Dan kali ini, aku tak mau menjadi orang yang mengatakan 'et tu Brute?
