Quotes by Christopher Columbus
Christopher Columbus (1451-1506) was an Italian explorer and navigator whose voyages across the Atlantic Ocean opened the way for the widespread European exploration and colonization of the Americas. Born in Genoa, Italy, he harbored dreams of finding a westward route to Asia. In 1492, he famously landed in the Bahamas, an event that would forever alter the course of history. While his legacy is complex, often marred by the consequences of colonization, Columbus remains a pivotal figure in the narrative of exploration and discovery.
