Ephesians 5:16 Redeeming the time, because the days are evil. On his way to Marengo Napoleon stopped at the door of the barber's shop and asked his former hostess if she remembered a young officer named Bonaparte once quartered in her family. "Indeed I do, and a very disagreeable inmate he was. He was always either shut up in his room" (at study), "or if he walked out he never condescended to speak to anyone." "Ah! my good woman," Napoleon rejoined, "had I passed my time as you wished to have me, I should not now have been in command of the army of Italy."
