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
Rashness succeeds often, still more often fails.
Napoleon Bonaparte
The Emperor died forsaken by all, on this horrible rock. (St. Helena) His death struggle was awful!
