I knew at that young age that going to the Bureau of Indian Affairs was useless, absolutely useless. I grew up having no faith in the bureaucracy of government.

I’m a human being, I’m not anyone’s mascot! And I am America’s conscience. And that’s what they don’t want to look at. They would rather look at a cartoon character than at the deceit of this country and this government.

If I want my people to be free, Americans have to be free.

May the Great Mystery continue to guide and protect the paths of you and your loved ones.

I do not want to be civilized. I want to be liberated.

The one thing I've always maintained is that I'm an American Indian. I'm not politically correct.

When a woman grabs my braids and says "How cute!" I crab her breast and say "How cute!" She never touches me again!
