The Aztecs were very sore, because Montezuma had no business giving the national treasury to every Tom, Dick, and Harry who wanted it. So Montezuma appeared on the roof of the palace and told them that Mexico had definitely turned the corner and everything would be all right from then on if they would just leave it to him. And one of the Aztecs picked up a big rock and hit Montezuma on the head with it, and that was the last of Montezuma II.

Montezuma had a weak and vacillating nature. He never knew what to do next. He had the courage of his convictions, but he had no convictions.

Quote of the day

Werner Heisenberg
