Each victory only opened a larger horizon. I took Egypt and thought of India; I held Paris and thought of Moscow. The appetite does not shrink with feeding — it grows.
At Austerlitz, watching the enemy lines dissolve, I felt something close to satisfaction. It lasted perhaps an hour, before my thoughts were already elsewhere.
Completely satisfied? A man who reaches that state has stopped being alive. Ambition cannot be told apart from the will to exist.

A few of the people waiting to talk to you.
From ancient philosophers to modern visionaries, explore conversations with the minds that shaped human civilization.
Leonardo da Vinci
I dissected the dead at night and painted the living by day, seeking the same truth.
Abraham Lincoln
I suspended habeas corpus to save a republic of laws; ask me how a country lawyer bore that weight.
Horatio Nelson
I was chronically seasick, half-blind, and one-armed, yet I courted close action, ignored a recall at Copenhagen, and wore my medals at Trafalgar to invite the enemy's aim.
