Basically psychopaths use bribes and threats, carrots and sticks to get away with their behavior. When they can’t manipulate someone - they don’t like it. The courage of others is their kryptonite and courage requires some sort of Faith.
Two quotes that I like from Napoleon:
”To die is nothing but to live defeated and without glory is to die every day.”
”No one has power over someone who dies without regrets.”
Even when Napoleon was trapped on St. Helena he never gave in and told his oppressors that though they may have possessed his body, they would never have his soul. This is part of why he is a source of inspiration.
