Some Final Words....

"What is a man without the beast ?
If all the beasts were gone, man would die
from a great loneliness of spirit, for whatever happens
to the beast happens to man. All things are connected.
Teach your children what we have taught our children,
that the Earth is our mother.
Whatever befalls the Earth, befalls the sons of the Earth.
If men spit upon the ground, they spit upon themselves.
This we know. The Earth does not belong to man;
man belongs to the Earth. This we know.
All things are connected....
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."

Spoken in 1854 by Chief Seattle,
leader of the Suquamish Tribe,
to the U.S. Government.
