 Antony. Plutarch. 1909-14. Plutarch’s Lives. The Harvard Classics
Antony was not long in getting the hearts of the soldiers, joining with them in their exercises, and for the most part living amongst them, and making them presents to the utmost of his abilities; but with all others he was unpopular enough.

 The Internet Classics Archive | Antony by Plutarch
Antony, seeing the heap, asked what it meant; his steward replied, "The money you have ordered to be given to your friend." So, perceiving the man's malice, said he, "I thought the decies had been much more; 'tis too little; let it be doubled." This, however, was at a later time.
Antony was running with the rest; but, omitting the old ceremony, twining a garland of bay round a diadem, he ran up to the rostra, and, being lifted up by his companions, would have put it upon the head of Caesar, as if by that ceremony he was declared king.
Antony, at first, laughing at such discourse from so young a man, told him he wished he were in his health, and that he wanted good counsel and good friends to tell him the burden of being executor to Caesar would sit very uneasy upon his young shoulders.

Plutarch states it was Antony who, in the tense senatorial meetings in the month before Caesar crossed the Rubicon, demanded a vote that both Pompey and Caesar lay down their armies; a vote which, if it had been followed by the Consuls, could have avoided the Civil War.
Antony fled, disguising himself as a slave; yet within a day, seeing that no massacre of Caesar's adherents was underway, he sent his son to Brutus as a hostage and met with some of the assassins at his house.
