...more Redman words.

"...in accordance with Lakota belief that man did not occupy (any) special place in the eyes of 'Wakan Tanka', the Grandfather of us all. (We are) only a part of everything called the world .... (we) see that humaneness is not a thing which can be ordered by law. It is an ideal to be lived."

- Chief Luther Standing Bear - Lakota (Sioux) 1933

(Ref: "Land of the Spotted Eagle" - Luther Standing Bear)
