More quotes by Chief Seattle
All things share the same breath - the beast, the tree, the man... the air shares its spirit with all the life it supports.
Chief Seattle
The earth does not belong to man, man belongs to the earth. All things are connected like the blood that unites us all. Man did not weave the web of life, he is merely a strand in it. Whatever he does to the web, he does to himself.

Chief Seattle
Tribe follows tribe, and nation follows nation, like the waves of the sea. It is the order of nature, and regret is useless. Your time of decay may be distant, but it will surely come, for even the White Man ... cannot be exempt from the common destiny.
Chief Seattle
We are a part of the earth and it is part of us.
Chief Seattle
Whatever Seattle says, the great chief at Washington can rely upon with as much certainty as he can upon the return of the sun or the seasons.

Your religion was written on tablets of stone, ours on our hearts. 8. We are part of the earth and the earth is part of us.
Chief Seattle
The water's murmur is the voice of my father's father.
