Bartoleme de Las Casas and Juan Gines de Sepulveda"These people are the most guileless, the most devoid of wickedness and duplicity, the most obedient and faithful to their native masters and to the Spanish Christians whom they serve. They are by nature the most humble, patient, and peaceable, holding no grudges, free from embroilments, neither excitable nor quarrelsome.…They are… very apt to receive our holy Catholic faith, to be endowed with virtuous customs, and to behave in a godly fashion. Yet into this sheepfold, into this land of meek outcasts there came some Spaniards who immediately behaved like ravening wild beasts, wolves, tigers, or lions that had been starved for many days."de las Casas, Bartolome.
