” The second reason was that if there chanced to be in those lands some population of Christians, or some havens, into which it would be possible to sail without peril, many kinds of merchandise might be brought to this realm, which would find a ready market, and reasonably so, because no other people of these parts traded with them, nor yet people of any other that were known; and also the products of this realm might be taken there, which traffic would bring great profit to our countrymen.” (Azurara)
” The third reason was that, as it was said that the power of the Moors (Arab Muslims) in that land of Africa was very much greater than was commonly supposed, and that there were no Christians among them, nor any other race of men; and because every wise man is obliged by natural prudence to wish for a knowledge of the power of his enemy; therefore the said Lord Infant exerted himself to cause this to be fully discovered, and to make it known determinately how far the power of those infidels extended.” (Azurara)
.” The fourth reason was because during the one and thirty years that he had warred against the Moors, he had never found a Christian king, nor a lord outside this land, who for the love of our Lord Jesus Christ would aid him in the said war. Therefore he sought to know if there were in those parts any Christian princes, in whom the charity and the love of Christ was so ingrained that they would aid him against those enemies of the faith.” (Azurara)

” And not only did I see the first captives (African slaves), but their children and grandchildren as true Christians as if the Divine grace breathed in them and imparted to them a clear knowledge of itself.” (Azurara)
“On arriving in the outlying countries, those among the foreign kings who were obstructing the “transforming influence” (of Chinese culture) and were disrespectful were captured alive, and brigands who gave themselves over to violence and plunder were exterminated.” (Zheng He)

“In the fifth year of Yongle (1407) commanding the fleet we went to Java [Indonesia], Calicut [India], Cochin [India], and Siam [Thailand]. The kings of these countries all presented as tribute local products, and precious birds and rare animals. We returned in the seventh year (1409).” (Zheng He)

“In the nineteenth years of Yongle (1421) commanding the fleet we conducted the ambassadors from Hormuz [Iran] and the other countries, who had been in attendance at the capital for a long time, back to their counties. The kings of all these countries presented local products as tributes even more abundantly than previously.” (Zheng He)
