Napoleon Bonaparte
Never depend on the multitude, full of instability and whims always take precautions against it.
Napoleon Bonaparte
Do not talk to me of goodness, of abstract justice, of nature law. Necessity is the highest law, public welfare is the highest justice.

Napoleon Bonaparte
Clearly, the pleasures wines afford are transitory - but so are those of the ballet, or of a musical performance. Wine is inspiring and adds greatly to the joy of living.
Napoleon Bonaparte
I believe love to be hurtful to society, and to the individual happiness of men. I believe, in short, that love does more harm than good.
Napoleon Bonaparte
It is cowardice to commit suicide.
Napoleon Bonaparte
There is no class of people so hard to manage in a state, as those whose intentions are honest, but whose consciences are bewitched.
Napoleon Bonaparte
A soul you say? Give my pocketwatch to a savage and he'll think it has a soul.
