No, these are not the sayings of Al "Famous" Amos.

Can you name the person that said the quote during the French Revolutionary or Napoleonic Wars?

1. July 1798 - "Be assured, I will return either crowned with laurel, or covered with cypress.

2. July 1794 - "It is to you, pure and virtuous men, that I address myself, and not to brigands." followed by "For the last time, president of assassins, I desire to be heard."

3. Post Napoleonic Wars - "The fate of a battle, of a state, often follows the route taken by the artillery.

4. July 1809 - "Is not a French brigadier sufficient to command that which is called my army corps?"
