More quotes by Napoleon Bonaparte
To do all that one is able to do, is to be a man to do all that one would like to do, is to be a god.
Napoleon Bonaparte
I would believe any religion that could prove it had existed since the beginning of the world. But when I see Socrates, Plato, Moses, and Mohammed I do not think there is such a one. All religions owe their origin to man.
Napoleon Bonaparte

Napoleon Bonaparte
The heart may be broken, and the soul remain unshaken.

Napoleon Bonaparte
Impossible is a word to be found only in the dictionary of fools.
Napoleon Bonaparte
When soldiers have been baptized in the fire of a battle-field, they have all one rank in my eyes.
Napoleon Bonaparte
Nothing makes the future look so rosy as to contemplate it through a glass of Chambertin.
Napoleon Bonaparte
If I always appear prepared, it is because before entering an undertaking, I have meditated long and have foreseen what might occur. It is not genius which reveals to me suddenly and secretly what I should do in circumstances unexpected by others it is thought and preparation
Napoleon Bonaparte
A leader is a dealer in hope.
