I Do Not Steal Victory.

I Am Dying With The Help Of Too Many Physicians.

Shall I Pass By And Leave You Lying There Because Of The Expedition You Led Against Greece, Or Shall I Set You Up Again Because Of Your Magnanimity And Your Virtues In Other Respects?

I Foresee A Great Funeral Contest Over Me.

Now You Fear Punishment And Beg For Your Lives, So I Will Let You Free, If Not For Any Other Reason So That You Can See The Difference Between A Greek King And A Barbarian Tyrant, So Do Not Expect To Suffer Any Harm From Me. A King Does Not Kill Messengers.

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.
