Norman Douglas  
The superior man, when resting in safety, does not forget that danger may come. When in a state of security he does not forget the possibility of ruin. When all is orderly, he does not forget that disorder may come. Thus his person is not endangered, and his States and all their clans are preserved.

Confucius (551 BC - 479 BC)  
Our land is more valuable than your money. As long as the sun shines and the waters flow, this land will be here to give life to men and animals; therefore, we cannot sell this land. It was put here for us by the Great Spirit and we cannot sell it because it does not belong to us.

Anonymous, Blackfoot chief (c. 1880)  
There is no Them, there is only Us. Some of Us think this or some of Us think that, but we're all Us.
