Famous Quotes:
“Weapons they have none, nor are acquainted with them, for I showed them swords which they grasped by
the blades, and cut themselves through ignorance. They have no iron, their javelins being without it,
and nothing more than sticks, though some have fish-bones or other things at the ends.
They are all of a good size and stature, and handsomely formed.
I saw some with scars of wounds upon their bodies, and demanded by signs the of them;
they answered me in the same way, that there came people from the other islands in the neighborhood
who endeavored to make prisoners of them, and they defended themselves.
I thought then, and still believe, that these were from the continent.
It appears to me, that the people are ingenious, and would be good servants and I am of opinion that they
would very readily become Christians, as they appear to have no religion.
They very quickly learn such words as are spoken to them. If it please our Lord,
I intend at my return to carry home six of them to your Highnesses, that they may learn our language.
I saw no beasts in the island, nor any sort of animals except parrots."
- Christopher Columbus
