1:03:19
Imagine the minds that conceived this!
1:03:21
With architects and engineers like these,
1:03:23
..we can build cities such as we only dreamed.
1:03:26
Aristotle may have called them barbarians,
but he never saw Babylon!

1:03:31
We have enough gold here to support another
three generations of Macedonian armies.

1:03:36
Macedonia would soon corrupt, Cassander,
1:03:39
..wealth in great quantities brings the crows.
1:03:45
Not for the men who fought I trust?
1:03:48
We'll pay them well, Antigonus.
1:03:50
But not as mercenaries for future services.
1:03:52
Now you sound like Philip.
1:03:54
Philip never saw Babylon.
1:03:58
No he didn't, Hefaistion.
1:04:03
Alexander, I know you think me
a stiff old sod, but,

1:04:07
..whatever our differences, know this day,
1:04:10
Your father would be very proud of you.
1:04:15
Thank you, Parmenion.
1:04:17
And I ask you to forgive me, my own anger. My pride.
1:04:21
They too, blind me.
1:04:28
Yes, the grandsons of goat herders,
1:04:31
..we now rule two million square miles.
1:04:35
Not if we keep giving it all away!
1:04:36
But, none of you fear that this great fortune,
1:04:42
..may drive us all to destruction.
1:04:45
You over value us. For as long as Darius
breathes, he is the legitimate King of Asia,

1:04:50
..and I but the king of air.
1:04:53
But he has no power, Alexander!
1:04:55
He's lost in the mountains with no army.
1:04:57
As long as he's lost, Philotas, he can be believed in.
