Napoleon Bonaparte
A man will fight harder for his interests than for his rights. Men are moved by only two mechanisms: fear and self-interest. Victory belongs to the most persevering.
Napoleon Bonaparte
Variety made the Revolution. Liberty was just a pretext.
Napoleon Bonaparte
When small men attempt great enterprises, they always end by reducing them to the level of their mediocrity.
