“No, no, my friend. You are kind, and you mean well, but you can never understand these things as I do. You've never been oppressed.”
S. Alice Callahan, Wynema: A Child of the Forest

“But, my dear friend Wildfire," said Carl Peterson laying his hand on the Indian's shoulder, "this is not a policy to live by."

"Then let it be a policy to die by," defiantly spoke the Indian. "If we cannot be free, let us die. What is life to a caged bird, threatened with death on all sides?”
S. Alice Callahan, Wynema: A Child of the Forest

“Who can declare that money is not a power which rulers of the world cannot withstand?”
S. Alice Callahan
