Since my life as a prisoner has begun I have heard the teachings of the white man's religion, and in many respects believe it to be better than the religion of my fathers

Wisdom and peace come when you start living the life the creator intended for you.

I should never have surrendered. I should have fought until I was the last man alive.

I was born on the prairies where the wind blew free and there was nothing to break the light of the sun. I was born where there were no enclosures.

One of the attributes of love . . . is to bring harmony and order out of chaos.

But I suppose there's a lot to see everywhere, if only you keep your eyes open.
