"While the rest of Europe marched on crusades to regain the Holy Land, Spainards fought their religious crusades against the infidels on their own doorstep. This constant battle for their land and faith left an indelible mark on the Spanish character. No man with any breeding regarded himself as other than a soldier ­ a conquistador dedicated to banishing the Moors from Spanish soil."
