The definitions already given are correct.  But perhaps it will help you to remember it if you look at the pieces put together to make the word: fool + hardy.\n\n"Fool" hardly needs explanation.\n"Hardy" is used hear in the sense of "bold"\n[Middle English, from Old French hardi, past participle of hardir, make hard, embolden, of Germanic origin; see  kar- in Indo-European roots.]\nhttp://www.thefreedictionary.com/dict.asp?Word=hardy\n\nIf it's of interest:\ncompare the nickname "Richard the LIONHEARTED".  The latter part is typically explained as "bold as a lion".  This also happens to be the historical meaning of the name "Leonard" (from "Leonhard", i.e., 'lion' + our word 'hardy') Since\n"heart" and "hardy" seem to have a distinct history (except perhaps in the murky recesses of 'Indo-European'), and the idea of "having heart" or being "of stout heart" goes way back, so I'm not sure whether it's just happenstance that these names are equivalent, or whether (more likely) one influenced the other.

As the battle commences, Richard gives arguably the least motivational pep-talk in English literature ("Let not our babbling dreams affright our souls; Conscience is but a word that cowards use... March on, join bravely, let us to't pell mell; If not to heaven, then hand in hand to hell...."). Lord Stanley (who happens to be Richmond's step-father) and his followers desert, leaving Richard at a disadvantage. Richard is soon unhorsed on the field at the climax of the battle, and utters the often-quoted line, A horse, a horse, my kingdom for a horse! He is defeated in the final "hunting of the boar", so to speak, and Richmond succeeds as Henry VII, even going so far as to marry a York, effectively ending the War of the Roses (to the evident relief of everyone involved).

King John was definitely robbed, but not of his gold. He was not a popular king, but a most effective one, for he signed the document that was the basis of what is England's Parliament today, the Magna Carta. The hefty taxes levied upon the poor peasants of England were done so to pay the ransom for Richard, the Lionhearted, the absent hero of the Robin Hood saga. King Richard, on the other hand, despised England, and even after he was released from imprisonment, spent the remainder of his days in France...There is no factual basis for the stories of Robin Hood. However, Prince John did become king and ruled from April 6, 1199 until his death in 1216. He was largely unpopular due to losing coveted properties to France and for his excommunication from the Roman Catholic Church. That's why there have been very few royals since named John...The story of Robin Hood has no true merit in history. There are varying stories during that time when Anglo-Saxons and Normans still held prejudices against one another, some of them not so noble or heroic. It is widely believed that "Robin Hood" is a play on words evolving from the tales of an unsavory Robbing Hood or Thief. Despite Prince John's contributions - he is accredited with founding the Modern Royal Navy, he was considered unpopular among his contemporaries. Sad is the fact that while Robin Hood will always be fondly remembered as a wiley heroic fox, Prince John will go down in modern history as a thumb-sucking lion cub a la Disney. Hope this helped.

Henry I of England (c.1068 – 1 December 1135), called Henry Beauclerc because of his scholarly interests, was the fourth son of William the Conqueror. He reigned as King of England from 1100 to 1135, succeeding his brother, William II Rufus. Henry also was known by the nickname "Lion of Justice", due to the refinements which he brought about in the rudimentary administrative and legislative machinery of the time.\nHe seized power after the death of William II, which occurred (conveniently) during the absence of his older brother Robert Curthose on the Crusades.\nHis reign is noted for his opportunistic political skills, the aforementioned improvements in the machinery of government, the integration of the divided Anglo-Saxon and Normans within his kingdom, his reuniting of the dominions of his father, and his controversial (although well-founded) decision to name his daughter as his heir.

No you got it all wrong! I was a knight in king Aurthur's court, charging valiantly into the face of the dragon to save you the beautiful princess! Just as I drew my spear to slay the dragon, He turned and fried my carcass to a crisp, and ate you for lunch! Because of my failure you had to come back a horse crap shoveler.  Can you ever find it in your heart to forgive me?

this man had her killed:  John of Lancaster, 1st Duke of Bedford (20 June 1389 – 14 September 1435), also known as John Plantagenet, was the fourth son of King Henry IV of England by Mary de Bohun, and acted as Regent of England for his nephew, King Henry VI.\n\nJohn of Lancaster, 1st Duke of Bedford (right).\nHe was created Earl of Kendal, Earl of Richmond and Duke of Bedford in 1414 by his brother, King Henry V. In 1423, he married Anne, daughter of John the Fearless, Duke of Burgundy. After Anne's death in childbirth in 1432, he married Jacquetta of Luxembourg.\n\nwhen was he a pope? dude your question is invalid.  only one pope had her cannonized - the man that had her executed was not a pope.  besides infalliablity is not in all matters. learn a little about the denomination before you think of making fun - you're doing yourself a disservice.

Leo the king and/or queen of all they survey. You are a natural leader, kind and loyal to your friends and family. Your pride and ego can get in the way of things if you let it. Bet you love sex huh? When you get mad it is like big black thunderhead clouds huh? When you get stressed out, I bet you get a painful dull ache just below your shoulder blades in the center of your back huh? Watch out we suffer from heart problems in later years (its because our hearts are so big and we give so much of it away saving little for ourselves). Relationships with leos from the opposite sex are absolutely amazing...just remember that it is as easy to bruise another leos pride and ego just as easily as yours is. We are fire signs. We tend to have extremely sharp double bladed tongues....mind ya dont cut yerself. Sometimes we can be lazy huh? I also bet you are best at getting the ball rolling on a project then handing it off right? It's ok we get bored with routine...don't we ;) If you haven't figured it out I am a leo...I am a king and when I walk into anywhere people notice me...I also notice other leos (we get along great until some sort of competition starts...lol). You know an old man once told me there is a reason a group of lions is called a pride...go figure :) Always be good to your subjects or they can and will tear you down like so many other bad kings and queens.

Here's a link for you on the history of Napoleon.\n\nhttp://www.web-books.com/Classics/Nonfiction/History/Napoleon_Abbott/Napoleon_AbbottP1.htm\n\nHere is what Napolean realized at the end of his life...\n\n“I know men – I tell you – Jesus is not a man. He commands us to believe and gives no other reason than His awesome Word: ‘I am God.’ Philosophers try to solve the mysteries of the universe by empty dissertations – fools... Christ never hesitates; He speaks with authority. His religion is a mystery, but it subsists by its own power. He seeks and absolutely requires the love of men – the most difficult thing in the world to obtain. Alexander, Caesar, Hannibal conquered the world, but had no friends. I myself am perhaps the only person of my day who loves Alexander, Caesar, Hannibal, Charlemagne who, like myself, founded empires. But upon what? Force. Jesus founded His empire on love. And at this hour millions would die for Him. I myself have inspired multitudes with such affection that they would die for me, but my presence was necessary. Now that I’m in St Helena, where are my friends? I am forgotten, soon to return to the earth and become food for worms. What an abyss between my misery and the eternal Kingdom of Christ who is proclaimed, loved, adored, and which is extending over all the earth. Is this death that He died? I tell you, the death of Christ is the death of a god. I tell you, Jesus Christ is God. This Man respects your dignity. He will never force you to become His disciple. But He loves you and He asks you to invite Him to be the Lord of your life. He leaves you to decide...” \nNapoleon Bonaparte  (1769–1821)
