More quotes by Napoleon Bonaparte
The only one who is wiser than anyone is everyone.
Napoleon Bonaparte
I know men and I tell you that Jesus Christ is not a man. Superficial minds see a resemblance between Christ and the founders of empires, and the gods of other religions. That resemblance does not exist. There is between Christianity and whatever other religions the distance of infinity.
Napoleon Bonaparte
Alexander, Charlemagne and myself all tried to found an empire on force and we failed. Jesus Christ is building an empire on love, and today there are millions of people who would gladly die for His sake.
Napoleon Bonaparte
A well-composed song strikes the mind and softens the feelings, and produces a greater effect than a moral work, which convinces our reason, but does not warm our feelings, nor effect the slightest alteration in our habits
Napoleon Bonaparte
This year has begun hopefully for right thinkers. After all these centuries of feudal barbarism and political slavery, it is surprising to see how the word of 'liberty' sets minds on fire.
Napoleon Bonaparte
In a conquered country benevolence is not humanitarianism. It is a general political axiom that a conqueror must not inspire a good opinion of his benevolence until he has demonstrated that he can be severe with malefactors.
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
When I had the honor to be a second lieutenant, I ate dry bread, but I never let anyone know that I was poor.
Napoleon Bonaparte
The merit of Mahomet is that he founded a religion without an inferno.
Napoleon Bonaparte
Ability is noting without opportunity.
Napoleon Bonaparte
Men, in general, are but great children.
Napoleon Bonaparte
Men are led by trifles.
Napoleon Bonaparte
We live and die in the midst of marvels.
Napoleon Bonaparte
There is only one thing in this world, and that is to keep acquiring money and more money, power and more power. All the rest is meaningless.
Napoleon Bonaparte
Imagination governs the world.
Napoleon Bonaparte
More glorious to merit a sceptre than to possess one.
Napoleon Bonaparte
War justifies everything.
Napoleon Bonaparte
After me, the Revolution - or, rather the ideas which formed it - will resume their course. It will be like a book from which the marker is removed, and one starts to read again at the page where one left off.
Napoleon Bonaparte
Age, habits of business and experience have modified many characters.
Napoleon Bonaparte
The mind of a general ought to resemble and be as clear as the field-glass of a telescope.
Napoleon Bonaparte
