About This Quote
The life of every man is a diary in which he means to write one story, and writes another; and his humblest hour is when he compares the volume as it is with what he vowed to make it. Plutarch Priscian The Life Of Alexander The Great "Alexander the Great was a Macedonian general who lived from 356 - 323 BC. He was one of history's greatest military leaders. Alexander the Great was known for being very ambitious, intelligent, and charismatic.
He became king of Macedonia at just 20 years old, and expanded his empire as far as India. In 2008, a statue of Alexander was erected in Sivas (Turkey) after an archaeological team discovered his tomb."
