More quotes by Napoleon Bonaparte
The strong are good, only the weak are wicked.
Napoleon Bonaparte
Unavailable wars are always just.
Napoleon Bonaparte
Paradise is a center whither the souls of all men are proceeding, each sect in its particular road.
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
My star was fading, I felt the reins slipping out of my grasp, and could do nothing to stop it.
Napoleon Bonaparte
In war, the moral is to the physical as three is to one.
Napoleon Bonaparte
It must be recognized that the real truths of history are hard to discover. Happily, for the most part, they are rather matters of curiosity than of real importance.
Napoleon Bonaparte
I am the signet which marks the page where the revolution has been stopped but when I die it will turn the page and resume its course.
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
Cavalry is useful before, during, and after the battle.
Napoleon Bonaparte
Liberty is a need felt by a small class of people whom nature has endowed with nobler minds than the mass of men.... Consequently, it may be repressed with impunity. Equality, on the other hand, pleases the masses.
Napoleon Bonaparte
The battlefield is a scene of constant chaos. The winner will be the one who controls that chaos, both his own and the enemies.
Napoleon Bonaparte
The reason most people fail instead of succeed is they trade what they want most for what they want at the moment.
Napoleon Bonaparte
In tragedy great men are more truly great than in history. We see them only in the crises which unfold them.
Napoleon Bonaparte
To a father who loves his children victor has no charms. When the heart speaks, glory itself is an illusion.
Napoleon Bonaparte
In war, as in love, we must come into contact before we triumph.
Napoleon Bonaparte
We are made weak both by idleness and distrust of ourselves. Unfortunate, indeed, is he who suffers from both. If he is a mere individual he becomes nothing if he is a king he is lost.
Napoleon Bonaparte
Tragedy warms the soul, elevates the heart, can and ought to create heroes. In this sense, perhaps, France owes a part of her great actions to Corneille.
Napoleon Bonaparte
Rascality has limits stupidity has not.
Napoleon Bonaparte
I treat policies like war. I hoodwink one flank so as to trounce the other. In my family we kneel only to God.
Napoleon Bonaparte
