Sus adeptos eran educados en una lealtad absoluta a su persona. Se decía que los estimulaba a mascar hachís y luego explicaba las alucinaciones que provocaba la droga como visiones del cielo, en el que entrarían inmediatamente si cumplían con su deber. Lo cierto es que a causa de ello, los seguidores del Viejo de la Montaña fueron llamados hashishin (fumadores de hachís). Para los europeos, este nombre se convirtió en la voz asesinos.

Additional quotes by Isaac Asimov

On numerous occasions, I have been asked if I "believe" in UFOs. My usual answer is, "I assume that by UFO you mean 'unidentified flying objects.' I certainly believe that many people have seen objects in the air or sky that they can't identify, and those are UFOs. But then, many people can't identify the planet Venus, or a mirage. If you are asking me whether I believe that some mysterious object reported is a spaceship manned by extraterrestrial beings, then I must say I am very skeptical. But that, you see, is an identified flying object, and that's not what you're asking about, is it?
