Conquer your fear, and I promise you'll conquer death.
Alexander
It's a high ransom she charges for nine months lodging in the womb.
Alexander
It has always been our great dream to go east.
Alexander
Were we Gods, we'd breach these walls to the Outer Ocean.
Alexander
In the end, all that matters is what you've done.
Alexander
You break my heart, you men...afraid!?
Alexander
Yes, you're right Crateros. I should have sent you veterans home sooner, and I will. The first of your shall be the Silver Shields, and then every man who has served seven years. Respected, rich, LOVED! You'll be treated by you wives and children as heroes for the rest of your lives. And enjoy a peaceful death. But you dream Crateros! Your simplicity long ended, when you took Persian mistresses and children, and you thickened your holdings with plunder and jewels... Because you have fallen in love with all the things in life that destroy men. Do you not see? And you, as well as I, know, that as the years decline, and the memories stale, and all your great victories fade, it will always be remembered, you left your king in Asia!
Alexander
This is the man who is going to take you from Greece to Persia! He can't even make it from one couch to the next.
Alexander
Stay with me tonight, Hephaistion.
Alexander
It is you I love, Hephaistion. No other.
Alexander
Aristotle be damned! By Zeus and by all the other gods, what makes you so much better than them? Cassander! Better than you really are! In you and those like you is this.
Alexander
When I was a child my mother thought me divine and my father weak... which one am I Hephaistion? Weak or divine?
Alexander
Hephaistion loves me as I am, not what.
Alexander
He is Hephaistion.
Alexander
Men of Macedon, we're going home.
Alexander
