Native Wisdom
- You are part of everything! You are part of the fire, the water, the green, the stars, you are related to everything. You are related to the stones, to the trees, to the fish, to the creepy-crawlers, to the ones that fly, to the ones that walk on all fours, and to the ones that walk on two legs. Everything is sacred and, therefore, you are sacred too. -Wallace Black Elk, Sicangu Lakota Spiritual Elder
