More quotes by Napoleon Bonaparte
There are in Europe many good generals, but they see too many things at once. I see one thing, namely the enemy's main body. I try to crush it, confident that secondary matters will then settle themselves.
Napoleon Bonaparte
I shall be an Attila to Venice.
Napoleon Bonaparte

Napoleon Bonaparte
Rashness succeeds often, still more often fails.
Napoleon Bonaparte

I was then too powerful for any man, except myself, to injure me.
Napoleon Bonaparte
The Emperor died forsaken by all, on this horrible rock. (St. Helena) His death struggle was awful!
Napoleon Bonaparte
Large legislative bodies resolve themselves into coteries, and coteries into jealousies.
