QUOTES

"We, the human children of this Earth, all have our own cultures and traditions, languages, and we all like to keep them, as they identify us as one of the many kinds of peoples of the Earth. Our Mother, the earth (land) gives us all the necessities of life: it feeds us, gives us clothes, shelter and cradles us. The US Government is acting like a dictator in just taking our land. I have voiced again and again, Western Shoshone land - our Mother Earth - is not for sale."

"We must always remember the future generations and protect the sacred things so that the little ones coming behind us will be ok. The struggle will go on."
