I have read that Napoleon Bonaparte said: I thank whatever God there may be for my unconquerable spirit. Can anyone confirm this? Also, although I would translate this into something like: Je remercie n'importe quel Dieu qui soit pour mon esprit invincible. - Does anyone know the exact French words Napoleon said?
I have found that quote on Google, but as a quote by William Ernest Henley (Invictus). I've forwarded you the link for your perusal. http://pgoh13.free.fr/reflections.php
