“Hollanders are not a nation to rob another of its property, but desire to live in friendship with all people, and trade with them.”

~ Jan van Riebeeck, Precis of the Archives of the Cape of Good Hope (c. January 1656 - December 1658), as quoted in Riebeeck's Journal (1897), by H. C. V. Leibrandt, Cape Town, p. 67
