Napoleon

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

Napoleon

It is the success which makes great men.

Napoleon

It requires more courage to suffer than to die.

Napoleon

It’s not the size of the army but the power within the army.

Napoleon

Let the path be open to talent.

Napoleon

Men are moved by two levers only: fear and self interest.

Napoleon

My mind is a chest of drawers. When I wish to deal with a subject, I shut all the drawers but the one in which the subject is to be found. When I am wearied, I shut all the drawers and go to sleep.

Napoleon

My success and everything good that I have done, I owe to my mother.

Napoleon

Never awake me when you have good news to announce, because with good news nothing presses; but when you have bad news, arouse me immediately, for then there is not an instant to be lost.

Napoleon

Nothing is lost as long as courage remains.
