We were contented to let things remain as the Great Spirit Chief made them. They were not; and would change the rivers and mountains if they did not suit them.

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.

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

Treat all men alike. Give them the same law. Give them an even chance to live and grow.

Struggling isn't a sign of failure but of strength. Keep pushing, keep striving...your best is yet to come!

I am basically turning football players into sprinters for a while. When we first talked about it, I didn't know how my expertise could be used.

Judaism is not complete without Christianity and without Judaism, Christianity would not exist.

There aint a microphone brave enough to give me feedback!

It is clear that this essential Christian doctrine gives a new value to human nature, to human history and to human life which is not to be found in the other great oriental religions.

The angels and the saints rejoice at the sight of men on earth who struggle, suffer and labor for the love of Christ.
