Napoleon Bonaparte
If fifty thousand men were to die for the good of the State, I certainly would weep for them, but political necessity comes before everything else.
Napoleon Bonaparte
All the great captains have performed vast achievements by conforming with the rules of art--by adjusting efforts to obstacles.
Napoleon Bonaparte
Audacity succeeds as often as it fails in life it has an even chance.
