More quotes by Napoleon Bonaparte
The infectiousness of crime is like that of the plague.
Napoleon Bonaparte

Napoleon Bonaparte
A commander in chief ought to say to himself several times a day: If the enemy should appear on my front, on my right, on my left, what would I do? And if the question finds him uncertain, he is not well placed, he is not as he should be, and he should remedy it.

Men of genius are meteors destined to burn themselves out in lighting up their age.
Napoleon Bonaparte
Nothing is lost as long as courage remains
Napoleon Bonaparte
The basic principle that we must follow in directing the armies of the Republic is this: that they must feed themselves on war at the expense of the enemy territory.
Napoleon Bonaparte
There must be Religion. Otherwise the poor would murder the rich.
Napoleon Bonaparte
Good and decent people must be protected and persuaded by gentle means, but the rabble must be led by terror.
Napoleon Bonaparte
A good sketch is better than a long speech.
