Quotes by Louis Owens  (?)

“Our job is to be an awake people...utterly conscious, to attend to our world.”
Louis Owens

“The authors might have made the very interesting point that in fact Native American writing is not postcolonial but rather colonial, that the colonizers never left but simply changed their names to Americans; but the editors do not make such a point. The basic problem seems to be that the center, even when it begins to define itself as something ambiguously called "multicultural," still does not always hear more than the echo of its own voice or see very far beyond its own reflection.”
Louis Owens, Mixedblood Messages: Literature, Film, Family, Place

“There aren't any other times or worlds. That's how everything gets messed up, thinking like that.”
Louis Owens, Dark River
