" IT IS A LOVELY THING TO LIVE WITH COURAGE AND DIE LEAVING AN EVERLASTING FAME. " ALEXANDER THE GREAT ( 356 - 323 B.C.E ) |
| " Go to the gods, unconquered Alexander. May the River of Ordeal be mild as milk to you, and bathe you in light, not fire. May your dead forgive you: you have given more life to men than you brought death. God made the bull to eat grass,but the lion not; and God alone will judge between them. You were never without love; where you go may you find it waiting" Mary Renault - THE PERSIAN BOY |
| " When Alexander's sarcophagus was brought up from its shrine, Augustus gazed at the body then laid a crown of gold on its glass case and scattered some flowers to pay his respects. When they asked if he would like to see Ptolomey too, " I wished to see a King " he replied, " I did not wish to see corpses " Suetonius - LIFE OF AUGUSTUS |
