Additional quotes by Claude Louis Hector de Villars
My principal attention was always directed to the study of the younger generals. Such a one I found, by the boldness of his character, fit to lead a column of attack; another, from a disposition naturally cautious, but without being deficient in courage, more perfectly to be relied on for the defence of a country.
Quoted in D'après Th. H. Barrau, Livre de morale pratique, Paris, Hachette et Cie, 1852
