Great Men Are Meteors Designed To Burn

The Great Difficulty With Politics Is, That There Are No Established Principles.

Music, Of All The Liberal Arts, Has The Greatest Influence Over The Passions, And It Is That To Which The Legislator Ought To Give The Greatest Encouragement.

There Is No Strength Without Justice.

I Closed The Gulf Of Anarchy And Brought Order Out Of Chaos. I Rewarded Merit Regardless Of Birth Or Wealth, Wherever I Found It. I Abolished Feudalism And Restored Equality To All Regardless Of Religion And Before The Law. I Fought The Decrepit Monarchies Of The Old Regime Because The Alternative Was The Destruction Of All This. I Purified The Revolution.

If The Art Of War Were Nothing But The Art Of Avoiding Risks, Glory Would Become The Prey Of Mediocre Minds.... I Have Made All The Calculations; Fate Will Do The Rest.
