Brutus declares that Caesar must die, though he has nothing personal against him. He worries about how Caesar would change if he were crowned and explains that evil comes from good—much like dangerous snakes can come out on sunny days, when everyone needs to watch where they step. He says that Caesar may do damage if he is crowned.

Explanation:

In the excerpt above, Brutus says he has no complaint against Caesar. Caesar does not offend him in any way, so he has no personal reason for wanting him dead. But he believes Caesar can cause harm to the people if he is crowned. For Brutus, Caesar is a good person, but he is not sure if the coronation will keep Caesar a good person, since evil comes from good, so he thinks it is right to kill him.

In other words, and summarizing the paragraph shown in the question above , Brutus declares that Caesar must die, though he has nothing personal against him. He worries about how Caesar would change if he were crowned and explains that evil comes from good—much like dangerous snakes can come out on sunny days, when everyone needs to watch where they step.
