"Wars are for people who are not civilized enough to sit down and discuss their problems rationally.... Peace allows the flow of knowledge to reach further... and have a deeper impact on all of us..

Are we going to "evolve"...., or are we going to "dissolve"..?

So many lives.., depend on a handful of people.

The universe is watching..."

"In every material universe, the motion of a particle in a preferential reference frame is determined by the action of forces whose total vanished for all times when and only when the velocity of the particle is constant in . That is, a particle initially at rest or in uniform motion in the preferential frame continues in that state unless compelled by forces to change it."

"To every action there is always opposed an equal reaction: or the mutual actions of two bodies upon each other are always equal, and directed to contrary parts."

---- Issac Newton

Read this over a few times.. Apply it to everything I have just talked about... and let it sink in...

"Every part of this country is sacred to my people. Every hillside, every valley, every plain and grove has been hallowed by some fond memory or some sad experience of my tribe. Even the rocks, which seem to lie dumb as they swelter in the sun along the silent shore in solemn grandeur, thrill with memories of past events connected with the fate of my people."

"Many of our Tribes still have the ceremonies, songs and traditions. Today, the ceremonies and songs are coming back even stronger. The Elders have a lot of this knowledge. The young people need to learn these songs and traditions from the Elders. This is the strength of the people. The ancient Wisdom and Knowledge of ancient Laws are hidden in the ceremonies and songs. We should seek out these songs and ceremonies."

(*This is one, that I kind of disagree with... But.., I'd have to sit down with Archie, to hear his own interpretation, though.. Sometimes words passed along, change their colors..)

"But in the Indian Spirit the land is still vested; it will be until other men are able to divine and meet its rhythm. Men must be born and reborn to belong. Their bodies must be formed of the dust of their forefathers' bones."
