Napoleon Bonaparte
Wherever wood can swim, there I am sure to find this flag of England.
Napoleon Bonaparte
Public opinion is a mysterious and invisible power, to which everything must yield. There is nothing more fickle, more vague, or more powerful yet capricious as it is, it is nevertheless much more often true, reasonable, and just, than we imagine.
Napoleon Bonaparte
The strong man is the one who is able to intercept at will the communication between the senses and the mind.
