I am glad that the Crown have proved that I am the leader of the Half-breeds in the North-West. I will perhaps be one day acknowledged as more than a leader of the Half-breeds, and if I am I will have an opportunity of being acknowledged as a leader of good in this great country.

I suppose the half-breeds in Manitoba, in 1870, did not fight for two hundred forty acres of land, but it is to be understood there were two societies who treated together. One was small, but in its smallness it had its rights. The other was great, but in its greatness it had no greater rights than the rights of the small, because the right is the same for everyone.

My people will sleep for one hundred years, but when they awake, it will be the artists who give them their spirit back.

I became the leader because of my father's leadership and I was considered as powerful as same as my own father.

We must cherish our inheritance. We must preserve our nationality for the youth of our future. The story should be written down to pass on.

You got to be brave and have courage, believe in yourself, because that is the first thing to success is believe in yourself.

Deeds are not accomplished in a few days, or in a few hours. A century is only a spoke in the wheel of everlasting time.
