More quotes by Napoleon Bonaparte
Public opinion is the thermometer a monarch should constantly consult.
Napoleon Bonaparte
To make yourself understood to people, one must first speak to their eyes
Napoleon Bonaparte
In war, as in politics, no evil - even if it is permissible under the rules - is excusable unless it is absolutely necessary. Everything beyond that is a crime.
Napoleon Bonaparte
There is only one thing in this world, and that is to keep acquiring money and more money, power and more power. All the rest is meaningless.
Napoleon Bonaparte
Why and how are words so important that they cannot be too often used.
Napoleon Bonaparte
A well-composed song strikes the mind and softens the feelings, and produces a greater effect than a moral work, which convinces our reason, but does not warm our feelings, nor effect the slightest alteration in our habits
Napoleon Bonaparte
A man made for public life and authority never takes account of personalities he only takes account of things, of their weight and their conseqences.
Napoleon Bonaparte
What is history but a fable agreed upon?
Napoleon Bonaparte
In order not to be astonished at obtaining victories, one ought not to think only of defeats.
Napoleon Bonaparte
Ability has nothing to do with opportunity.
Napoleon Bonaparte
Being in the Tuileries is not everything: what matters is to stay here.
Napoleon Bonaparte
Alexander, Charlemagne and myself all tried to found an empire on force and we failed. Jesus Christ is building an empire on love, and today there are millions of people who would gladly die for His sake.
Napoleon Bonaparte
What I have done up to this is nothing. I am only at the beginning of the course I must run. Do you imagine that I triumph in Italy in order to aggrandise the pack of lawyers who form the Directory, and men like Carnot and Barras? What an idea!
Napoleon Bonaparte
What are the conditions that make for the superiority of an army? Its internal organization, military habits in officers and men, the confidence of each in themselves that is to say, bravery, patience, and all that is contained in the idea of moral means.
Napoleon Bonaparte
It must be recognized that the real truths of history are hard to discover. Happily, for the most part, they are rather matters of curiosity than of real importance.
Napoleon Bonaparte
Victory is not always winning the battle...but rising every time you fall.
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
We are born, we live, we die among supernatural.
Napoleon Bonaparte
One is more certain to influence men, to produce more effect on them, by absurdities than by sensible ideas.
Napoleon Bonaparte
In war, the moral is to the physical as three is to one.
Napoleon Bonaparte
