Napoleon's love letters are quite peculiar, to say the least.... “Adieu, adorable Josephine; one of these nights your door will open with a great noise; as a jealous person, and you will find me on your arms.” 
"Josephine, take care! Some fine night, the doors will be broken open and there I'll be."
"There are those four days between the 23rd, and the 26th.; what were you doing that you failed to write to your husband? (...) The day when you say "I love you less", will mark the end of my love and the last day of my life."
"I am waiting patiently for Murat to know the details of what you are doing, what you are saying, whom you are seeing, what you are wearing."
"A kiss on your heart, and one much lower down, much lower!"
“You don’t write to me at all; you don’t love your husband; you know how happy your letters make him, and you don’t write him six lines of nonsense…”
