Modesty - he was single-mindedly seeking power and fame, wanting to surpass the reputation of Achilles, and so be remembered forever. In a world without a concept of an afterlife, if you wanted to live on, you had to do it in peoples' memories , so being the most remembered was vital. Just as Alexander wanted to be the greatest in memory, successors wanted to be remembered as greater than Alexander. Julius Caesar tried to earn top spot and seems to have succeeded.
