More quotes by Napoleon Bonaparte
The great art of governing consists in not letting men grow old in their jobs.
Napoleon Bonaparte
Audacity succeeds as often as it fails in life it has an even chance.
Napoleon Bonaparte
When you determine to risk a battle, reserve to yourself every possible chance of success, more particularly if you have to deal with an adversary of superior talent, for if you are beaten, even in the midst of your magazines and your communications, woe to the vanquished!
Napoleon Bonaparte
The first quality of the commander-in-chief is a cool head to receive a correct impression of things. He should not allow himself to be confused by either good or bad news.
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.
Napoleon Bonaparte
Once you have made up your mind, stick to it there is no longer any 'if' or 'but'.
Napoleon Bonaparte
Those who failed to oppose me, who readily agreed with me, accepted all my views, and yielded easily to my opinions, were those who did me the most injury, and were my worst enemies, because, by surrendering to me so easily, they encouraged me to go too far... I was then too powerful for any man, except myself, to injure me.
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
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
Imagination governs the world.
Napoleon Bonaparte
I have made noise enough in the world already, perhaps too much, and am now getting old, and want retirement.
Napoleon Bonaparte
Religions are all founded on miracles - on things we cannot understand, such as the Trinity. Jesus calls himself the Son of God, and yet is descended from David. I prefer the religion of Mahomet - it is less ridiculous than ours.
Napoleon Bonaparte
The leader's role is to define reality, then give hope
Napoleon Bonaparte
I am a soldier and accustomed to risking my life every day. I am full of the fire of youth I cannot act with the restraint of an accomplished diplomat.
Napoleon Bonaparte
The best generals are those who have served in the artillery.
Napoleon Bonaparte
History is the version of past events that people have decided to agree upon.
Napoleon Bonaparte
Promptly improve your accidents.
Napoleon Bonaparte
The infectiousness of crime is like that of the plague.
Napoleon Bonaparte
The reason I beat the Austrians is, they did not known the value of five minutes
Napoleon Bonaparte
You must not fear death, my lads defy him, and you drive him into the enemy's ranks.
Napoleon Bonaparte
