Napoleon Bonaparte

A true man hates no one.

A revolution can be neither made nor stopped. The only thing that can be done is for one of several of its children to give it a direction by dint of victories.

Women are nothing but machines for producing children.

One must change one's tactics every ten years if one wishes to maintain one's superiority.

Music is the voice that tells us that the human race is greater than it knows.

A celebrated people lose dignity upon a closer view.

There is one kind of robber whom the law does not strike at, and who steals what is most precious to men: time.

Take time to deliberate, but when the time for action has arrived, stop thinking and go in.

You must not fear death, my lads; defy him, and you drive him into the enemy's ranks.

It is the cause, not the death, that makes the martyr.

Death is nothing, but to live defeated and inglorious is to die daily.

The human race is governed by its imagination.
