"Lack is more in means, than in..." - Quote by Napoleon Bonaparte

“When I had the honor to be a second lieutenant, I ate dry bread, but I never let anyone know that I was poor.”

“Vengeance is without foresight.”

“A man who has no consideration for the needs of his men ought never to be given command.”

“I have always been of the opinion that unpopularity earned by doing what is right is not unpopularity at all, but glory.”

“I have not seen a person who loved virtue, or one who hated what was not virtuous. He who loved virtue would esteem nothing above it.”

“The secret of making dreams come true can be summarized in four C's.They are Curiosity, Confidence, Courage, and Constancy; and the greatest of these is Confidence.”

“Breach of promise is a base surrender of truth.”

“It is true that water will flow indifferently to east and west, but will it flow equally well up and down? Human nature is disposed toward goodness, just as water tends to flow downwards. There is no water but flows downwards, and no man but shows his tendency to be good. Now, by striking water hard, you may splash it higher than your forehead, and by damming it, you may make it go uphill. But, is that the nature of water? It is external force that causes it to do so. Likewise, if a man is made to do what is not good, his nature is being similarly forced.”

“Degeneracy follows every autocratic system of violence, for violence inevitably attracts moral inferiors. Time has proven that illustrious tyrants are succeeded by scoundrels.”
