Answer #1

I found two, but that’s it…

“I have conquered an empire but I have not been able to conquer myself.” http://thinkexist.com/quotes/peter_the_great/

“It is my great desire to reform my subjects, and yet I am ashamed to confess that I am unable to reform myself.” http://www.giga-usa.com/quotes/authors/peter_i_a001.ht

Answer #2

I’m guessing it’s this one? “I have conquered an empire but I have not been able to conquer myself.”

He doesn’t seem to have said much, but perhaps you can pull some quotes from his biographies.
