| How can you buy or sell the sky, the warmth of the land? We do not own the freshness of the air or the sparkle of the water. How can you buy them from us? ...the white man does not understand our ways. One portion of the land is the same to him as the next for he is a stranger who comes at night and takes whatever he needs... when he has conquered it, he moves on. He treats his mother, the Earth, and his Brother, the Sky, as things to be bought, plundered, sold like sheep or bright beads. His appetite will devour the Earth and leave behind only a desert -- Chief Seattle |
