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

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.

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

We gave up some of our country to the white men, thinking that then we could have peace. We were mistaken. The white man would not let us alone.

Belief is the death of intelligence.

I am a Mexican that has been lucky enough to travel the world, speaking English, but with a heart that speaks a universal language.

[I had ] uneventful, though isolated childhood. Good, kind, stable parents.
