Quotes for scenarios, part II

[Jay Bee]

Well, it's not of course, but to make the things a bit harder (or at least not so easy ) I would like to propose that those who post quotes try replacing some words, altering the order of the phrase, etc... so that finding the quotes out on the net be a little bit more difficult.

Your turn again, Henrik.

quote: Originally posted by cpoulos on 03-20-2001 09:25 AM It's by a Roman, Cicero, or Seneca, I can't remember which.

With the JB & Henrik consent I'd like to propose cpoulos for the next quote. I'm sure he didn't use anything but his knowledge to post.

That's fine with me, as long as it's not from the Peninsular War (j/k)

[Henrik]

Ask for little scenario and get branded for life... Anyway, here's a quote that has nothing to do with the Peninsular War Jay Bee : "as the principal motive of this enterprise has been the service of God our Lord, and our own advantage, it pleased Him in His mercy to speed them on their route. Henceforth, all Christendom, in this part of Europe, shall be able to provide itself with these spices and precious stones". Who said it, and whom were they speaking to?

[The Hogfather]

Christofer Columbus to the King of Portugal?

I know he went to see many different monarchs...

[Fiera]

I've got a feeling, let's see...

The Catholic Kings to Pope Alexander VI.

[Chris 62]

Sorry guys, but no for both.

[Waku]

I dunno why but I knew a cpoulos' quote was gonna be difficult...

Let's try again:

Luis Santangel & Marchioness of Moya to Queen Isabella?????

[Chris 62]

Half a point, Waku. It is the queen who is being told the quote, but who is saying it? You knew I wouldn't let you guys just type in a search to find it.
