“Pratt created the Carlisle Indian Industrial School in Carlisle, Pennsylvania, and his motto was "kill the Indian, save the man." At this school, and others that would open and follow in its wake, tens of thousands of Native children faced abuse and neglect. They were often forcibly removed from their homes and taken to these schools that were sometimes across the country from their original lives. When they arrived, the children were forced to cut their hair and change their names. They were made to become White in look and label, stripped of any semblance of Native heritage. The children were not allowed to speak their Native tongues, some of them not knowing anything else. They were prohibited from acting in any way that might reflect the only culture they had ever known.
At Pratt's Carlisle Indian Industrial School alone, the numbers revealed the truth of what this treatment did. Of the ten thousand children from 141 different tribes across the country, only a small fraction of them ever graduated. According to the Carlisle Indian School Project, there are 180 marked graves of Native children who died while attending. There were even more children who died while held captive at the Carlisle school and others across the county. Their bodies are only being discovered in modern times, exhumed by the army and people doing surveys of the land who are finding unmarked burial sites. An autograph book from one of the schools was found in the historical records with one child's message to a friend, "Please remember me when I'm in the grave."
The US Bureau of Indian Affairs seemed to think Pratt had the right idea and made his school the model for more. There ended up being more than 350 government-funded boarding schools for Natives in the United States. Most of them followed the same ideology: Never let the children be themselves. Beat their language out of them. Punish them for practicing their cultures.
Pratt and his followers certainly killed plenty of Indians, but they didn't save a damn thing.”

“Pravda je jako lev. Nemusíš ji bránit. Vypusť ji a ona se ubrání sama.”
“Pravdou je presný opak. To, čo k nám prichádza na základe čistej náhody, čistého chaosu a nad čím máme iba pramalú kontrolu, vytvára, akí sme. A to, akí sme, určuje všetky naše kroky, všetko, čo urobíme. Nie naše činy sa k nám vracajú, zvažoval Vokoš, naše činy iba zrkadlia, odrážajú to, čo k nám v živote prišlo. Človek nie je pôvodca, ale následok, obyčajný produkt toho, čo ho postretlo, vytvarovalo, vytvorilo. Človek s celou svojou povahou, myslením a činmi je dôsledkom, nie príčinou.”

“Prawda o jej stanowisku w tej sprawie nie pokrywa się ze spotykanymi u nas stereotypami. Róża Luksemburg była osobą intymnie przywiązaną do polskiej kultury. Władała biegle kilkoma obcymi językami (rosyjskim, niemieckim i francuskim) i większość swego życia spędziła w Szwajcarii i w Niemczech, jednakże język polski był i pozostał jej pierwszym i najbliższym językiem. Tysiące Niemców dowiedziało się po raz pierwszy właśnie z jej artykułów prasowych, kim był Adam Mickiewicz, jej ulubiony poeta. Słowem i pismem walczyła z przymusową germanizacją Polaków w zaborze pruskim. W 1900 r. ogłosiła w tej sprawie w Poznaniu m.in. broszurę pt. Przeciwko wynaradawianiu. Programowo wypowiadała się za autonomią dla zaboru rosyjskiego i czyniła to w sposób bardziej bezkompromisowy niż współcześni jej przywódcy endecji. Nie była natomiast zwolenniczką umieszczenia hasła niepodległości Polski w programie SDKPiL.”

“Prawdziwy Wojownik wie, że jego siła tkwi w zdolności do dawania, a nie tylko w umiejętności korzystania z pomocy innych i wysługiwania się nimi. Wojownik, który czerpie bez końca i nie oddaje nic w zamian, staje się pasożytem. Dlatego jeśli chcesz być Wojownikiem, musisz zawsze dawać coś od siebie i być pożytecznym dla innych, a nie tylko dla samego siebie.”
