If it’s anything to ya, Gaius Julius Caesar saw a statue of Alexander the Great and had an emotional breakdown – Alexander the Great had conquered “the entire world” (or, well, the world as ancient greeks understood it) in his 20s and Caesar was 30 going on 40, and he was “just” a Roman General. – He eventually did scorch his name into the annals of history, but he was over 45 when he did.
And like. We don’t need to be Julius Caesar or JRR Tolkienn. It is more than enough if by the age they became legends you have figured yourself out just enough to be living instead of surviving, especially if, unlike them, you didn’t get a head start by having rich parents. :P
But by that time he was a university professor… And had fought in the Great War.
Can we just have one nice moment where we think we might succeed in something please!? Just one!
