If the mountain doesn't come to me, I'll go to it - Alexander the Great



This is probably the earliest road film about a human being on a journey with a purpose. The boy Alexander was a true travel freak, and so in his few surviving quotes there are such references, in addition to sayings like "make the world your home."
As a literary young man, Alexander had a pretty good start. At the age of 16, he began to receive the education of teacher Aristotle, who is known as the origin of Western civilization. From a young age, Alexander knew more about the philosophy of science and art and the importance of realizing self-worth and glory than other peasant children who only knew how to scrape food in the soil. And his wonderful family has given him two irreconcilable forces - the father of the drunken military strategist and the mother of the wise woman.

When Alexander graduated and ascended the throne at the age of 20, his father left him with only a small amount of property, so the teenager began to travel around the world with tens of thousands of people, because staying in the Kingdom of Macedonia may not be able to repay the debts owed. So he began to travel: in the

early days of the Persian expedition (334 BC-333 BC) from
Issus to Gaugamela (333 BC-331 BC) to
hunt down Darius III (331 BC-330 BC)
Central Asia (before 331 BC) 330 - 327 BC)
India (327 BC - 326 BC)
returned to Babylon (326 BC - 325 BC)

Alexander also had ambitions, but his ambitions were not the throne, he restored the throne of the king of the conquered kingdom; it was not money, he distributed the money to the soldiers and he did not bring much money; it was not a girl, because he was only interested in men. . . . Following him throughout his life was a precious opportunity, and he seized it. In 10 years, he traveled from Greece to India, conquered the countries along the way, established more than 10 libraries, and spread the civilization of Greece. . If he can keep going, it is estimated that the first person to discover the Pacific Ocean will not be the Spaniard Balboa after 1500. Fortunately, I didn't go to China, because it happened to be the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. Any country's advisers are enough for Xiaoya to drink a pot. In a

sense, Alexander's movie is the same as walking into the wilderness. The teenager set out on the road with a dream, and after realizing his dream and leaving some spiritual wealth to the world, he died. One is for glory, the other is for the pursuit of nature.

Alexander quotes

  • Aristotle: The East has a way of swallowing men and their dreams, but still to think it's these myths that lead us toward the greatest glory... Why is it wrong to act on them? I can only warn you, not teach you. Beware of what you dream - for the gods have a way of punishing such pride.

  • Old Ptolemy: All greatness comes from loss.
