Excerpt from Napoleon at St. Helena, or Interesting Anecdotes and Remarkable Conversations of the Emperor During the Five and a Half Years of His Captivity: Collected From the Memorials of Las Casas, O'meara, Moutholon, Antommarchi, and Others
It would require the observation of a Thucydides, directing the pencil of a Tacitus, to portray, by a few touches, such a character; and modern idiom, even in their hands, would probably have proved inadequate to the task. Equal to Alexander in military achievement, superior to Justinian in legal information, sometimes second only to Bacon in political sagacity, he possessed, at the same time, the inexhaustible resources of Hannibal, and the administrative powers of Caesar.
