Mediocre

"If the art of war were nothing but the art of avoiding risks, glory would become the prey of mediocre minds.... I have made all the calculations;fate will do the rest."
--Napoléon Bonaparte,
Statement at the beginning of the 1813 campaign, as quoted in "The Mind of Napoleon" (1955) by J. Christopher Herold
