War We have been travelling through a cloud. The sky has been dark ever since the war began. - Black Kettle
Thought Man I once thought that I was the only man that persevered to be the friend of the white man, but since they have come and cleaned out our lodges, horses, and everything else, it is hard for to believe the white man any more. - Black Kettle
Peace Want All we ask is that we have peace with the whites. We want to hold you by the hand. You are our father. - Black Kettle
Peace May Want I want you to give all these chiefs of the soldiers here to understand that we are for peace, and that we have made peace, that we may not be mistaken by them for enemies. - Black Kettle
Friends Now We were once friends with the whites but you nudged us out of the way by your intrigues, and now when we are in council you keep nudging each other. - Black Kettle
Home May Want People We want to take good tidings home to our people, that they may sleep in peace. - Black Kettle
The less I know about other people's affairs, the happier I am. I'm not interested in caring about people. I once worked with a guy for three years and never learned his name. Best friend I ever had. We still never talk sometimes. - Ron Swanson
