The older faith taught that the very condition of progress was the limitation of power to the capacity and the virtue of rulers. Walter Lippmann

One of our people in the Native community said the difference between white people and Indians is that Indian people know they are oppressed but don’t feel powerless.

Power is in the earth; it is in your relationship to the earth. Winona LaDuke

teacher men self
Intercourse is after all man's best teacher. "Know thyself" is an excellent maxim; but even self-knowledge cannot be perfected in closets and cloisters--nor amid lake scenery, and on the sunny side of the mountains.
