A lazy man is apt to be envious.

You are never justified in arguing.

Truth does not happen, it just is.

To gossip is like playing checkers with an evil spirit: you win occasionally but are more often trapped at your own game.

One foe is too many and a hundred friends too few.

Trouble follows sin as surely as fever follows chill.

KIOWA

I love the land and the buffalo and will not part with it... I want the children raised as I was... I don't want to settle. I love to roam over the prairies. There I feel free and happy, but when we settle down we grow pale and die.
- Satanta, Kiowa chief

NAVAJO

The song is very short because we understand so much.

Thoughts are like arrows: once released , they strike their mark. Guard them well or one day you may be your own victim.

Always assume your guest is tired, cold and hungry, and act accordingly.

NEVADA

My young men shall never farm. Men who work the soil cannot dream, and wisdom comes to us in dreams.
- Wowoka, Nevada
