More quotes by Alexander the Great
Remember upon the conduct of each depends the fate of all.
Alexander the Great

Alexander the Great

Alexander the Great

Alexander the Great
Sex and sleep alone make me conscious that I am mortal.
Alexander the Great
Let us conduct ourselves so that all men wish to be our friends and all fear to be our enemies.
Alexander the Great
I do not steal victory.
Alexander the Great
I had rather excel others in the knowledge of what is excellent, than in the extent of my power and dominion.
Alexander the Great
There are no more worlds to conquer!
Alexander the Great
Shall I pass by and leave you lying there because of the expedition you led against Greece, or shall I set you up again because of your magnanimity and your virtues in other respects?
Alexander the Great
