Lie Groups and Lie Algebras, chapter I, § 4. Nilpotent Lie algebras

Let V be a vector space and g a finite-dimensional subalgebra of gl(V)\mathfrak{gl}(V) whose elements are nilpotent endomorphisms of V. Then g is a nilpotent Lie algebra.

This follows immediately from Lemma 1 and Corollary 1.

Bourbaki puts the proof directly after the statement, so what is above is the statement and its proof together.
