Parmenion:
I pray to Apollo you soon realize how far you've turned from your father's path.
Alexander:
Damn you Parmenion, by the gods and your Apollo! War was in my father's guts! It wasn't over ripe and reason like yours.
Parmenion:
He never lusted for war, Alexander, or enjoyed it so. He consulted his peers in council, among equals! The Macedonian way. He didn't make decisions based on his personal desires.
Alexander:
I've taken us further than my father ever dreamed! Old man, we're in new worlds.
Cassander:
Alexander, be reasonable! Were they ever meant to be our equal? Share our rewards? You remember what Aristotle said. An Asian? What would a wedding vow ever mean to a race that has never kept their word to a Greek?
Alexander:
[throws Cassander against the wall]
Aristotle be damned!
Hephaistion:
Alexander!
Alexander:
By Zeus and all the gods, what makes you so much better than them, Cassander? Better than you really are! In you and those like you is this!
Hephaistion:
[pleading]
Alexander...
Alexander:
What disturbs me most is not your lack of respect for my judgment. It's your contempt for a world far older than ours!
