What makes this excerpt from Act III of Julius Cesar an example of a monologue?

Brutus: (In a kind and honest voice) Romans, country­men and lovers, be silent, that you may hear. Be­lieve me for mine honor. If any dear friend of Caesar's demand why Brutus rose against Caesar, this is my not that I loved Caesar less, but that I loved Rome more. (The citizens murmur with surprise.)

As Caesar loved me, I weep for him. As he was for­tunate, rejoice at it. As he was valiant, I honor him. But as he was ambitious, I slew him. (The crowd nods approval.) There is tears for his love, joy for his fortune, honor for his valor, and death for his ambition. (A few cheer.) I have the same dagger for myself, when it shall please my country to need my death! (All cheer loudly.)

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
