This proves he is motivated by patriotism because it means love for your country and that is exactly what he said he was doing it for. The other quote that shows his patriotism was. When he was talking about how they should kill Caesar he said “ We shall be called purgers not murderers “ Quote means that they will be called saviors of Rome and not evil killers. This quote shows that he is driven my patriotism because he believes it is for the best of Rome and that is why he is doing it.
