More quotes by Tecumseh
Sell a country! Why not sell the air, the clouds and the great sea, as well as the earth? Did not the Great Spirit make them all for the use of his children?
Tecumseh
Let us form one body, one heart, and defend to the last warrior our country, our homes, our liberty, and the graves of our fathers.

I am Shawnee! I am a warrior! My forefathers were warriors. From them I took only my birth into this world. From my tribe I take nothing. I am the maker of my own destiny! And of that I might make the destiny of my red people, of our nation, as great as I conceive to in my mind, when I think of Weshemoneto, who rules this universe!
Tecumseh
The Great Spirit made all things. He gave the white people a home beyond the great waters. He supplied these grounds with game, and gave them to his red children and he gave them strength and courage to defend them.

The way, and the only way, to stop this evil is for all the red men to unite in claiming a common and equal right in the land, as it was at first, and should be yet for it was never divided, but belongs to all for the use of each.
Tecumseh
The Great Spirit is angry with all men that tell lies.
Tecumseh
Love your life, perfect your life, beautify all things in your life.

From my tribe I take nothing, I am the maker of my own fortune.
Tecumseh
Always give a word or a sign of salute when meeting or passing a friend,even a stranger, when in a lonely place. Show respect to all people and grovel to none. When you arise in the morning give thanks for the food and for the joy of living. If you see no reason for giving thanks, the fault lies only in yourself.
Tecumseh
When you rise in the morning, give thanks for the light, for your life, for your strength. Give thanks for your food and for the joy of living. If you see no reason to give thanks, the fault lies in yourself.
Tecumseh
My father! The sun is my father, and the earth is my mother, and on her bosom I will recline.
Tecumseh
The white people have no right to take the land from the Indians, because the Indians had it first.
Tecumseh
