“My people are few. They resemble the scattering trees of a storm-swept plain...There was a time when our people covered the land as the waves of a wind-ruffled sea cover its shell-paved floor, but that time long since passed away with the greatness of tribes that are now but a mournful memory.”
― Chief Seattle, Chief Seattle's Speech (1854)

“ إن الحرية عبء ثقيل على الشعوب التي لم تحضرها نخبتها لتحمل مسؤوليات استقلالها ”
