"I am a warrior. I have fought for my people. I have fought for my land. I will fight until I die."

"The white man comes to us with a smile on his face and a knife behind his back."

"The white man draws a circle around himself and calls it a fence. We draw a circle around ourselves and call it a nation."

"We are a nation of many people. We have always lived here. We have always been free. We will always be free."

"They made us many promises, more than I can remember, but they never kept but one; they promised to take our land, and they took it."
