I was wondering if anyone could help me out, im
looking for quotes that talk about alexander as a
leader from historians. Either point of will help,
whether he was good or bad

I remember the quote but I can't recall the battle or auther. I think it was before Issus in Rufus. Alexander addressing his men to lift there spirits say something like of the two comanders they have darius and you have alexander. I will look it up when I get home to my books. This may jog somebody elses memory.Good Luck

Arrian BKII 7. Page 112 in the penguin."And what, finally, of the two men in supreme command? You have Alexander, they - Darius!"
