Chief Seattle of the Suquamish

— American Indian Trail Walk Path —

When the last red man has vanished from the earth, and his memory is only the shadow of a cloud moving across the prairie, these shores and forests will still hold the spirit of my People, for they love the earth as a newborn loves its mother's heartbeat. So if we sell our land, love it as we have loved it, care for it as we have cared for it, hold it in your mind, with all your heart, preserve it for your children and love it - as God loves us all.
