Take Nothing But Memories, Leave Nothing But

The Earth Does Not Belong To Man, Man Belongs To The Earth. All Things Are Connected Like The Blood That Unites Us All. Man Did Not Weave The Web Of Life, He Is Merely A Strand In It. Whatever He Does To The Web, He Does To Himself.

Take Nothing But Memories, Leave Nothing But Footprints!

There Is No Quiet Place In The White Man's Cities. No Place To Hear The Unfurling Of Leaves In Spring, Or The Rustle Of An Insect's Wings. But Perhaps It Is Because I Am A Savage And Do Not Understand. The Clatter Only Seems To Insult The Ears.

How Can You Buy Or Sell The Sky, The Warmth Of The Land? The Idea Is Strange To Us. If We Do Not Own The Freshness Of The Air And The Sparkle Of The Water, How Can You Buy Them? Every Part Of The Earth Is Sacred To My People.

Tribe Follows Tribe, And Nation Follows Nation, Like The Waves Of The Sea. It Is The Order Of Nature, And Regret Is Useless. Your Time Of Decay May Be Distant, But It Will Surely Come, For Even The White Man ... Cannot Be Exempt From The Common Destiny.
