"The Great Spirit made us all. He made the white man and the red man. He gave us different ways. We should respect each other's ways."

"My heart is red and sweet, and I know it is sweet, because whatever passes near me puts out its tongue to me."

"I want to spend my time in my own way. I want to live in my own house. I want to be left alone."

"I have killed, I have scalped, I have plundered, I have done all that is bad. But I have done it for my people, to defend my homeland."

"I have been told that you have come to buy my land. I do not wish to sell my land. I have never sold my land. I have no land to sell."
