True character stands the test of emergencies. Do not be mistaken, it is weakness from which the awakening is rude.
Napoleon Bonaparte
A King should sacrifice the best affections of his heart for the good of his country no sacrifice should be above his determination.
Napoleon Bonaparte
The basic principle that we must follow in directing the armies of the Republic is this: that they must feed themselves on war at the expense of the enemy territory.
