Alexander

1:00:02

The dreamers exhaust us.

1:00:05

They must die before they kill us with their blasted dreams.

1:00:11

Ah, just throw all that away, Cadmos.

1:00:13

It's an old fool's rubbish.

1:00:18

You shall write,

1:00:19

"He died of fever and a weakend condition."

1:00:24

Yes, Great Pharoah.

1:00:25

Oh, he could have stayed home in
Macedonia, married, raised a family,

1:00:30

He'd have died a celebrated man,

1:00:35

But this was not Alexander.

1:00:38

All his life, he fought to free himself from fear,

1:00:44

And by this, and this alone he was made free,

1:00:52

The freest man I have ever known.

1:00:57

His tragedy was one of increasing loneliness and

1:01:01

impatience with those who could not understand.

1:01:06

And if his desire to reconcile Greek
and barbarian ended in failure,

1:01:13

Hah! What failure!

1:01:19

His failure towered over other men's successes.

1:01:29

I have lived, I have lived long life, Cadmos.

1:01:34

But the glory and memory of man
will always belong to the ones

1:01:38

who follow their great visions,

1:01:41

And the greatest of these is the one

1:01:44

we now call

1:01:47

Megas Alexandros

1:01:53

The greatest Alexander of them all.
