Quotes Out Loud
Generals presents Alexander the Great (Audio Read Acted Quotes Out Loud) Music by Scott Buckley – www.scottbuckley.com.au There is nothing impossible to him who will try I am not afraid of an army of lions led by a sheep; I am afraid of an army of sheep led by a lion Nature hath placed nothing so high that it is out of the reach of industry and valor Heaven cannot brook two suns, nor earth two masters A tomb now suffices him for whom the whole world was not sufficient Remember upon the conduct of each depends the fate of all I am indebted to my father for living, but to my teacher for living well My father will anticipate everything. He will leave you and me no chance to do a great and brilliant deed I do not steal victory How happy had it been for me had I been slain in the battle. It had been far more noble to have died the victim of the enemy than fall a sacrifice to the rage of my friends Through every generation of the human race there has been a constant war, a war with fear. Those who have the courage to conquer it are made free and those who are conquered by it are made to suffer until they have the courage to defeat it, or death takes them When we give someone our time, we actually give a portion of our life that we will never take back May all mortals from now on live like one people in concord and for mutual advancement. Consider the world as your country, with laws common to all and where the best will govern irrespective of tribe I am not interested in the descendance of the citizens or their racial origins. I classify them using one criterion: their virtue No doctor on this earth can really cure anybody they are helpless in front of death I spent all my life earning riches but cannot take anything with me, wealth is nothing but dust I came empty handed into this world and I will go empty-handed True love never has a happy ending, because there is no ending to true love There are no more worlds to conquer |
