According to Aristobulus, a friend and historian who accompanied Alexander on his campaigns, at one point, Alexander fell ill from exhaustion. Others, however, say that he became sick because he plunged into the river Cydnus to swim; he had craved the water because he was sweating and overcome by the heat.
Alexander was seized by convulsions, suffered a high fever, and was unable to sleep at all. None of the physicians thought he would survive. But Philip the Acarnanian, a doctor who was a friend of Alexander, in whom he had complete trust in medical matters, and who was held in very high regard throughout the army, wanted to give him a strong purgative medicine.
Alexander therefore ordered him to administer it. While Philip was preparing the cup containing the drug, a letter from Parmenion was handed to Alexander. In it Parmenion warned him to be on his guard against Philip, because (he said) he had reliable information that Darius had bribed Philip to poison him.
Alexander read the letter and, still holding it in his hand, took the cup containing the medicine and drank it, at the same moment handing the letter to Philip to read.
Thus, at the very same instant, Alexander was drinking the medicine while Philip was reading Parmenion’s letter. It immediately became clear that Philip’s medicine was harmless, for he showed no surprise at the letter; instead, he only urged Alexander to follow his instructions and everything else he would prescribe, because only by doing so would he be saved.
The medicine purged him, the illness passed, and Alexander thereby proved to Philip that he was a loyal friend, to all those around him that he was resolved not to distrust his friends, and in the face of death that he possessed courage.

"You have the option not to go against the gods, to side with me and become monarch in Greece," Xerxes said to Leonidas before the battle of Thermopylae.
Leonidas replied by letter: "If you knew what is truly good in life, you would refrain from desiring something that does not belong to you. For me, it is more noble to die for Greece than to be a monarch over my own people."
And when Xerxes wrote to him: "Send me your weapons"
he replied in writing: "μολὼν λαβέ"
(Molṑn lavé = Come and take them)
