We are part of the earth and it is part of us. The perfumes flowers are our sisters; the deer, the horse, the great eagle: these are our brothers. All things are connected like the blood which unites one's family.

All creation is one. What we do to one, we do to the entire web of life.

Your God is not our God! Your God loves your people and hates mine! He folds his strong protecting arms lovingly about the paleface and leads him by the hand as a father leads an infant son.

All things are connected. Whatever befalls the Earth, befalls the children of the Earth.

I will not dwell on, nor mourn over, our untimely decay, nor reproach my paleface brothers with hastening it, as we too may have been somewhat to blame.

Like a man who has been dying for many days, a man in your city is numb to the stench.

We are part of the earth and it is part of us ... What befalls the earth befalls all the sons of the earth.
