More quotes by Napoleon Bonaparte
More glorious to merit a sceptre than to possess one.
Napoleon Bonaparte
Good infantry is without doubt the sinews of an army but if it has to fight a long time against very superior artillery, it will become demoralized and will be destroyed.
Napoleon Bonaparte
Even when I am gone, I shall remain in people's minds the star of their rights, my name will be the war cry of their efforts, the motto of their hopes.
Napoleon Bonaparte
I fear three newspapers more than a hundred thousand bayonets.
Napoleon Bonaparte

Napoleon Bonaparte
The art of the police is not to see what it is useless that it should see.
Napoleon Bonaparte
The strong are good, only the weak are wicked.
Napoleon Bonaparte
International incidents must not be allowed to shape foreign policy, foreign policy must shape the incidents.
Napoleon Bonaparte
People take England on trust, and repeat that Shakespeare is the greatest of all authors. I have read him: there is nothing that compares Racine or Corneille: his plays are unreadable, pitiful.
Napoleon Bonaparte
Called to the throne by the voice of the people, my maxim has always been: A career open to talent without distinction of birth. It is this system of equality for which the European oligarchy detests me
Napoleon Bonaparte
Obedience to public authority ought not to be based either on ignorance or stupidity.
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.
Napoleon Bonaparte
