To make yourself understood to people, one must first speak to their eyes
Napoleon Bonaparte
My waking thoughts are all of thee. Your portrait and the remembrance of last night's delirium have robbed my senses of repose.

Ability has nothing to do with opportunity.
Napoleon Bonaparte
The French complain of everything, and always.
Napoleon Bonaparte
When you have resolved to fight a battle, collect your whole force. Dispense with nothing. A single battalion sometimes decides the day.

My enemies make appointments at my tomb.
