Never tell your enemy he is doing the wrong thing.

Two armies are two bodies which meet and try to frighten each other.

Those who failed to oppose me, who readily agreed with me and accepted all my views, were those who did me the most injury.

It's the people who are in the wrong who get angry.

My decision to destroy the authority of the blacks in Saint Domingue (Haiti) is not so much based on considerations of commerce and money, as on the need to block for ever the march of the blacks in the world.

I pay attention only to what people do or say. I never pay attention to what they think.

Give me enough ribbons to place on the tunics of my soldiers and I can conquer the world.
