Napoleon Bonaparte Quotes, Order Quotes, Law Quotes

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 fought the decrepit monarchies of the Old Regime because the alternative was the destruction of all this. I purified the Revolution.
