Quote context

[...]

- For the first time in the ten years since he left Macedonia, Alexander, sick and weary, retreated.

- But he turned even this retreat into victory.

- For within him, out of the death of Cleitus, a new idea was born, a new understanding, a new driving force that it was not lands that must be conquered, but the hearts of men.

- And at the end of the thirsty road, at Susa, Alexander pledged himself and us to this new idea.

- Make this union fruitful as the seeds of the earth, and let the children of Alexander, a Greek, and Roxane, a Persian, be of both worlds and live in one.

- And let this be true of all you Greeks and Persians who are married here this day at Susa.

- To you, you men and women with whom I have lived and with whom I have died... Philip, Eurydice, Parmenio, Philotas, Darius and Cleitus, my brother, I offer this prayer.

- And to you, for peace I pray, that Macedonians and Persians and all the people of my empire will always be alike.

- Not merely subjects, but people who will live and build together in harmony and unity of heart and of mind.

- For we are all alike under God. And if God is the father, then he is the father of all.

- No. Oh, no. No, no. Not yet. There is still so much to do.
