Oh God! Like the thunderbird of old I shall rise again out of the sea; I shall grab the instruments of the white manโs success - his education, his skills, and with these new tools I shall build my race into the proudest segment of your society.
Chief Dan GeorgeThe faintness of the stars, the freshness of the morning, the dewdrop on the flower, speaks to me.
Chief Dan GeorgeLove is something you and I must have. We must have it because our spirit feeds upon it. We must have it because without it we become weak and faint. Without love our self-esteem weakens. Without it our courage fails. Without love we can no longer look out confidently at the world.
Chief Dan GeorgeOne thing to remember is to talk to the animals. If you do, they will talk back to you. But if you don't talk to the animals, they won't talk back to you, then you won't understand, and when you don't understand you will fear, and when you fear you will destroy the animals, and if you destroy the animals, you will destroy yourself.
