Napoleon Bonaparte
To attach no importance to public opinion, is a proof that you do not merit its suffrage.
Napoleon Bonaparte

Napoleon Bonaparte
My waking thoughts are all of thee. Your portrait and the remembrance of last night's delirium have robbed my senses of repose.

My soul is broken with grief, and there is no rest for your lover.
Napoleon Bonaparte
