Napoleon Bonaparte
Power is founded upon opinion.
Napoleon Bonaparte
The torment of precautions often exceeds the dangers to be avoided. It is sometimes better to abandon one's self to destiny.
Napoleon Bonaparte

Napoleon Bonaparte
In tragedy great men are more truly great than in history. We see them only in the crises which unfold them.
Napoleon Bonaparte

The object of war is victory, the object of victory is conquest, and the object of conquest is occupation.
Napoleon Bonaparte
A revolution is an idea which has found its bayonets.
Napoleon Bonaparte
The Jews are the master robbers of the modern age.
Napoleon Bonaparte
How many things apparently impossible have nevertheless been performed by resolute men who had no alternative but death.
Napoleon Bonaparte
What I have done up to this is nothing. I am only at the beginning of the course I must run. Do you imagine that I triumph in Italy in order to aggrandise the pack of lawyers who form the Directory, and men like Carnot and Barras? What an idea!
Napoleon Bonaparte
International incidents must not be allowed to shape foreign policy, foreign policy must shape the incidents.
Napoleon Bonaparte
Conscription is the vitality of a nation, the purification of its morality, and the real foundations of all its habits
Napoleon Bonaparte
Incidents should not govern policy but, policy incidents.
Napoleon Bonaparte
