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.

More quotes by Napoleon Bonaparte
Europe thus divided into nationalities freely formed and free internally, peace between States would have become easier: the United States of Europe would become a possibility.
Napoleon Bonaparte
There are only two forces in the world, the sword and the spirit. In the long run the sword will always be conquered by the spirit.
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
When you have resolved to fight a battle, collect your whole force. Dispense with nothing. A single battalion sometimes decides the day.
Napoleon Bonaparte
When firmness is sufficient, rashness is unnecessary.
Napoleon Bonaparte
I would believe any religion that could prove it had existed since the beginning of the world. But when I see Socrates, Plato, Moses, and Mohammed I do not think there is such a one. All religions owe their origin to man.
Napoleon Bonaparte
The bayonet has always been the weapon of the brave and the chief tool of victory
Napoleon Bonaparte
A woman laughing is a woman conquered.
Napoleon Bonaparte
To write history one must be more than a man, since the author who holds the pen of this great justiciary must be free from all preoccupation of interest or vanity.
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
When your enemy is doing something wrong, do not interrupt him.
Napoleon Bonaparte
Public opinion is a mysterious and invisible power, to which everything must yield. There is nothing more fickle, more vague, or more powerful yet capricious as it is, it is nevertheless much more often true, reasonable, and just, than we imagine.
Napoleon Bonaparte
The man fitted for affairs and authority never considers individuals, but things and their consequences.
Napoleon Bonaparte
The mind of a general ought to resemble and be as clear as the field-glass of a telescope.
Napoleon Bonaparte
Medicines are only fit for old people.
Napoleon Bonaparte
The logical end to defensive warfare is surrender.
Napoleon Bonaparte
The art of land warfare is an art of genius, of inspiration. On the sea nothing is genius or inspiration everything is positive or empiric.
Napoleon Bonaparte
I see only my objective - the obstacles must give way.
Napoleon Bonaparte
I make my battle plans from the spirit of my sleeping soldiers
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.
