memorable Quotes from Alexander the great
"There is nothing impossible to him who will try."
"I had rather excel others in the knowledge of what is excellent, than the extent of my power and dominion."
"Remember, conquer your fear and I promise you, you will conquer death."
"In the end, when its over, all that matters is what you've done."
