Prov.14:5
"A faithful witness will not lie: but a false witness will utter lies."
     




"This book, though complete in itself, is the second in a series of volumes which I am writing about the Spanish empire. The first volume was Rivers of Gold, published in 2003. I am now at work on a third volume which takes the extraordinary story to 1580, when Spain ceased to expand her responsibilities. King Philip II decided in that year not to try to conquer China." ~~~HUGH THOMAS: The Golden Age. The Spanish Empire of Charles V , PREFACE

5 Testis fidelis non mentitur; profert autem mendacium dolosus testis. 5. El testigo verdadero no miente; el testigo falso dice mentiras. 5 Il testimone fedele non mentisce, ma il testimone falso proferisce menzogne. 5 Un témoin fidèle ne ment pas, Mais un faux témoin dit des mensonges. 5 Ein ehrlicher Zeuge sagt immer die Wahrheit aus, ein falscher Zeuge verbreitet Lügen. 5 Правдивый свидетель не станет лгать, а лживый свидетель дышит ложью.
