Just to make the quote complete, I didn't realise it was that hard though. This was what started WWI after all. It is interesting to now that Gavrillo Princip wasn't the only one to try and that it was luck that made him suced in his task.

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.

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.

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?

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.
