“The country was made without lines of demarcation, and it is no man's business to divide it... Do not misunderstand me, but understand me fully with reference to my affection for the land. I never said the land was mine to do with it as I chose. The one who has the right to dispose of it is the one who created it. I claim a right to live on my land and accord you the privilege to live on yours.” MenMadeSaidCountryLinesLandMinesClaimsPrivilegeAffectionDividesAccordUnderstand Me Author:Chief Joseph
“Let us not torment each other because we are not all alike, but believe that God knew best what He was doing in making us so different. So will the best harmony come out of seeming discords, the best affection out of differences, the best life out of struggle, and the best work will be done when each does his own work, and lets every one else do and be what God made him for.” BelieveDoeMadeDifferentDoneDifferencesStruggleHarmonyAffectionTormentBest WorkSeemingDiscord Book:Self-culture, lectures Source: Self-culture, lectures
