Napoleon Bonaparte
The best way to keep one's word is not to give it.
Napoleon Bonaparte
Washington is dead! This great man fought against Tyranny he established the liberty of his country.

Napoleon Bonaparte
It is the success which makes great men.
Napoleon Bonaparte
Europe thus divided into nationalities freely formed and free internally, peace between States would have become easier: the United States of Europe would become a possibility.
Napoleon Bonaparte
When you determine to risk a battle, reserve to yourself every possible chance of success, more particularly if you have to deal with an adversary of superior talent, for if you are beaten, even in the midst of your magazines and your communications, woe to the vanquished!
Napoleon Bonaparte
A great Nation should have a fixed Government, so that the death of one man should not overturn it.
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
