More quotes by Napoleon Bonaparte

Napoleon Bonaparte
It requires more courage to suffer than to die.
Napoleon Bonaparte
The art of government is not to let me grow stale.
Napoleon Bonaparte

Napoleon Bonaparte
Success is the most convincing talker in the world.

Napoleon Bonaparte
There must be Religion. Otherwise the poor would murder the rich.
Napoleon Bonaparte

Napoleon Bonaparte
All things proclaim the existence of God.
Napoleon Bonaparte
The first quality of the commander-in-chief is a cool head to receive a correct impression of things. He should not allow himself to be confused by either good or bad news.
Napoleon Bonaparte
To do all that one is able to do, is to be a man to do all that one would like to do, is to be a god.
Napoleon Bonaparte
Friendship is but a name. I love no one.
Napoleon Bonaparte
Not one cent should be raised unless it is in accord with the law.
Napoleon Bonaparte
More glorious to merit a sceptre than to possess one.
Napoleon Bonaparte
