If A Man Loses Anything And Goes

I Was Very Sorry When I Found Out That Your Intentions Were Good And Not What I Supposed They Were.

Only Seven Years Ago We Made A Treaty By Which We Were Assured That The Buffalo Country Should Be Left To Us Forever. Now They Threaten To Take That From Us Also.

You Come Here To Tell Us Lies, But We Don't Want To Hear Them. If We Told You More, You Would Have Paid No Attention. That Is All I Have To Say.

The Life My People Want Is A Life Of Freedom. I Have Seen Nothing That A White Man Has, Houses Or Railways Or Clothing Or Food, That Is As Good As The Right To Move In The Open Country And Live In Our Fashion.

What Treaty Have The Sioux Made With The White Man That We Have Broken? Not One. What Treaty Have The White Man Ever Made With Us That They Have Kept? Not One.
