"The superior man is never in anyone's..." - Quote by Napoleon Bonaparte

“In politics, an absurdity in public business is going into it.”

“When you have an enemy in your power, deprive him of the means of ever injuring you.”

“A leader has the right to be beaten, but never the right to be surprised.”

“It is absurd to believe that soldiers who cannot be made to wear the proper uniform can be induced to move forward in battle. Officers who fail to perform their duty by correcting small violations and in enforcing proper conduct are incapable of leading.”

“Let nobody speak mischief of anybody.”

“No phase of life, whether public or private, can be free from duty.”

“You must not, when you have gained a victory, use any triumphing or insulting expressions, nor show too much of the pleasure you feel; but endeavour to console your adversary, and make him less dissatisfied with himself by every kind and civil expression that may be used with truth; such as, you understand the game better than I, but you are a little inattentive, or, you play too fast; or, you had the best of the game, but something happened to divert your thoughts, and that turned it in my favour.”

“The insignia meant a lot to the men who were fighting ... I had to do it ... I owed it to them.”

“Anger, hatred and jealousy never solve problems, only affection, concern and respect can do that.”
