“Glory is fleeting, but obscurity is forever.”

A throne is only a bench covered with velvet.

Nothing is lost as long as courage remains

It’s the unconquerable soul of man, and not the nature of the weapon he uses, that ensures victory

We must laugh at man to avoid crying for him.

It is the cause, not the death, that makes the martyr.

Orders and decorations are necessary in order to dazzle the people.

A woman laughing is a woman conquered.

Alexander, Caesar, Charlemagne, and I have founded empires. But on what did we rest the creations of our genius? Upon force. Jesus Christ founded his empire upon love; and at this hour millions of men would die for him.

One is more certain to influence men, to produce more effect on them, by absurdities than by sensible ideas.

If I had to choose a religion, the sun as the universal giver of life would be my god.

If we could read the past histories of all our enemies we would disregard all hostility for them.

I saw the crown of France laying on the ground, so I picked it up with my sword.

A revolution is an idea, taken up by bayonets.

Death is nothing, but to live defeated and inglorious is to die daily.

A true man hates no one.

Great ambition is the passion of a great character. Those endowed with it may perform very good or bad acts. All depends on the principles which direct them.

Our love faded quickly like footprints upon brittle sand washed away by a wandering tide who couldn’t keep his heart on land.

It happens in the quiet when that buzzing in the back of my mind fades out and I can’t do anything but simply feel.

One thing I will always love is how the world fades away when you look at me.

It breaks my heart in half watching your spirit fall. So when the light is fading, can I be the one you call?

The fading blue of yesterdays sky is reminding me of the hopeless love I told the moon about you.

We feel so much and remember so little.

There needs to be a foundation of friendship cause everything else fades.

Somewhere between the stars there is a place for me and you; Where the moon kisses the horizon and the darkness fades away.
