More quotes by Napoleon Bonaparte
Patriotism is a word which represents a noble idea.
Napoleon Bonaparte
There is no such thing as accident it is fate misnamed.
Napoleon Bonaparte
My decision to destroy the authority of the blacks in Saint Domingue (Haiti) is not so much based on considerations of commerce and money, as on the need to block for ever the march of the blacks in the world.

All systems of morality are fine. The gospel alone has exhibited a complete assemblage of the principles of morality, divested of all absurdity. It is not composed, like your creed, of a few common-place sentences put into bad verse. Do you wish to see that which is really sublime? Repeat the Lord's Prayer.
Napoleon Bonaparte

A true master of politics is able to calculate, down to the smallest fraction, the advantages to which he may put his very faults.
Napoleon Bonaparte
Friendship is but a name. I love no one.
Napoleon Bonaparte
Republican despotism is more fertile in acts of tyranny, because everyone has a hand in it.
Napoleon Bonaparte
Alexander, Charlemagne and myself all tried to found an empire on force and we failed. Jesus Christ is building an empire on love, and today there are millions of people who would gladly die for His sake.
Napoleon Bonaparte
Music is the voice that tells us that the human race is greater than it knows.
Napoleon Bonaparte
In war, moral factors acount for three quarters of the whole relative material strength accounts for only one quarter.
Napoleon Bonaparte
The art of land warfare is an art of genius, of inspiration. On the sea nothing is genius or inspiration everything is positive or empiric.
