We are going by you without fighting if you will let us, but we are going by you anyhow!

It does not require many words to speak the truth.

I believe much trouble would be saved if we opened our hearts more.

I do not believe that the Great Spirit Chief gave one kind of men the right to tell another kind of men what they must do.

Our chiefs are killed. . . . The little children are freezing to death. . . . My people have no blankets, no food. . . . My heart is sick and sad. . . . I will fight no more forever.

The earth is the mother of all people, and all people should have equal rights upon it.

I have asked some of the great white chiefs where they get their authority to say to the Indian that he shall stay in one place, while he sees white men going where they please. They cannot tell me.

Good words do not last long unless they amount to something.

Treat all men alike. Give them the same law. Give them an even chance to live and grow.

Hear me, my chiefs! I am tired. My heart is sick and sad. From where the sun now stands, I will fight no more forever.

It makes my heart sick when I remember all the good words and the broken promises.

All things we involve ourselves with should be of love. If it is not of love, stay away from it.

You should choose your battles if you can, but if the battle chooses you then kick the sod in his fuse box!

I want to go home at night and feel discomfort.

The realisation that our small planet is only one of many worlds gives mankind the perspective it needs to realise sooner that our own world belongs to all its creatures.

I like money. You like money. We need the money. But, money is not going to bring humanity and spiritualism into your life.

If we have optimism without empathy then it doesn't matter how much we master the secrets of science. We're not really solving problems, we're just working on puzzles.

Only where there is disillusionment and depression and sorrow does happiness arise; without the despair of loss, there is no hope.

Love is, without question life's greatest experience.

I would never walk off any show.

It's not a huge surprise that there are habitations at the bottom of the Black Sea.
