Napoleon Bonaparte
The leader's role is to define reality, then give hope
Napoleon Bonaparte
One bad general is worth two good ones.
Napoleon Bonaparte
A commander in chief ought to say to himself several times a day: If the enemy should appear on my front, on my right, on my left, what would I do? And if the question finds him uncertain, he is not well placed, he is not as he should be, and he should remedy it.
Napoleon Bonaparte
