If I were to give liberty to the press, my power could not last three days.
Napoleon Bonaparte
The affairs of war, like the destiny of battles, as well as empires, hang upon a spiders thread.
Napoleon Bonaparte
In war, groping tactics, half-way measures, lose everything.
Napoleon Bonaparte
Providence is always on the side of the last reserve.
Napoleon Bonaparte
I have doubtless erred more or less in politics, but a crime I never committed.
