You would make a ship sail against the winds and currents by lighting a bonfire under her decks? I have no time for such nonsense.

Napoleon I 1044 quotes

Audacity succeeds as often as it fails; in life it has an even chance.

Napoleon I 1044 quotes

Men have their virtues and the...

Men have their virtues and their vices, their heroisms and their perversities; men are neither wholly good nor wholly bad, but possess and practice all that there is of good and bad here below. Such is the general rule. Temperament, education, the accidents of life, are modifying factors. Outside of this, everything is ordered arrangement, everything is chance. Such has been my rule of expectation and it has usually brought me success.

Napoleon I 1044 quotes

All men of genius, and all tho...

All men of genius, and all those who have gained rank in the republic of letters, are brothers, whatever may be the land of their nativity.
