Chief Joseph

It makes my heart sick when I remember all the good words and the broken promises.

Hear me, my chiefs! I am tired. My heart is sick and sad. From where the sun now stands, I will fight no more forever.

Let me be a free man - free to travel, free to stop, free to work.

It took me realizing that a broken heart has never actually killed anyone to find the courage to ask for what I want, in just about every situation. That was part of my own growing up.

Exhaust the little moment. Soon it dies. And be it gash or gold it will not come Again in this identical guise.

America stands for the land of opportunity.
