“Of course, fairies are all imported in North America. We have no native fairies.

“We cannot describe the natural history of the soul, but we know that it is divine. All things are known to the soul. It is not to be surprised by any communication. Nothing can be greater than it, let those fear and those fawn who will. The soul is in her native realm; and it is wider than space, older than time, wide as hope, rich as love. Pusillanimity and fear she refuses with a beautiful scorn; they are not for her who putteth on her coronation robes, and goes out through universal love to universal power.” KnowsSoulBeautifulNaturalSpaceKnownRichGreaterDivineCommunicationAll ThingsUniversalRefuseWideRealmsNativeScornRobesNatural HistoryUniversal LoveCoronationFawns Author:Ralph Waldo Emerson
“Logic, like language, is partly a free construction and partly a means of symbolizing and harnessing in expression the existing diversities of things; and whilst some languages, given a man's constitution and habits, may seem more beautiful and convenient to him than others, it is a foolish heat in a patriot to insist that only his native language is intelligible or right.” MenMayMeanSeemsBeautifulLanguageGivenExpressionHabitDiversityLogicConstitutionFoolishHeatNativeConstructionPatriotConvenientNative Language Author:George Santayana
“Human excellence, parted from God, is like a fable flower, which, according to Rabbis, Eve plucked when passing out of paradise--severed from its native root, it is only the touching memorial of a lost Eden; sad, while charming--beautiful, but dead.” HumansBeautifulLostFlowerRootsExcellencePassingPassingsParadiseNativeTouchingCharmingMemorialEdenFablesRabbiPassing Out Author:Charles Villiers Stanford
“Phil Cousineau has created a fine companion book to accompany the important film he and Gary Rhine have made in defense of the religious traditions of Native Americans. [Native Americans] are recognized the world over as keepers of a vital piece of the Creator's original orders, and yet they are regarded as little more than squatters at home. This book features impressive interviews, beautiful illustrations, and gives a voice to the voiceless.” WorldGivingLittlesMadeImportantBookHomeBeautifulFilmOrderVoiceReligiousPiecesFineTraditionOriginalsCreatorDefenseFeaturesInterviewsNativeCompanionNative AmericanImpressiveAccompanyKeepersIllustrationGaryVoicelessReligious TraditionsSquatters Author:Peter Coyote
