Quote context

[...]

- For I will embrace in my cause any man. Greek, Carian, Lydian, Ionian who believes in it.

- Greece is where you are. Where you walk. Where you talk, breathe, live.

- To Alexander, write: Every nation of Asia have I, Darius the Persian, king of kings, king of lands of every tongue, ordered to be assembled on the plains of Babylon.

- Such an army as the world has never seen before stands against you, Alexander.

- Therefore, we command you, withdraw and return. Go back to the bosom of your mother Olympias.

- For you are still an impudent and shameless boy, who in your madness and ignorance have come to Asia with your band of robbers to do mischief.

- I send you a whip, a ball and a bag of gold. The whip to train you.

- The ball so that you may play with boys of your own age and not meddle in the affairs of men.

- And the gold for expenses. For I have heard that you are poor, and since I have gold as abundant as the sunlight, you need not come to Asia as a thief to steal it.

- You should not have informed us of your vast amounts of gold and silver, because now we will fight harder until all your possessions are ours.

- Nor have called me thief and boy, for if you slay me, it will not be accounted a great triumph, because you will have slain merely a robber chief.
