Quote by G.J. Meyer

“Upon bullying and bribing his way to the throne at last, this towering but evil-tempered man, a great hater as well as a great patron of Michelangelo, made it one of his purposes to blacken the Borgia name. He had former associates of the Borgias tortured in the quest for blacking material. Though the results must have disappointed him keenly-employment by the Borgias turned out to be no guarantee that one had witnessed unspeakable things-the supply of gossip grew steadily all the same, at a pace that accelerated over time.”
