Knowing about Napoleon's blunder at trying to invade Russia, and Hitler doing something similar in WW2 while also being supposedly a fan of Napoleon, I always like to say that Hitler admired Napoleon so much, he emulated even his failures.

There's probably a lesson in hubris to be found there. I wouldnt be surprised to hear Adolf thought he would succeed where others had failed.
