“Man living alone can do as it pleases him; if he lives among others he must bow the head to the good of all. Without strong leaders to see this done, the people will fail, the nation will break up into small, defenseless bands.”
― Mari Sandoz, Crazy Horse: The Strange Man of the Oglalas

“He is like the pemmican before it has found its shape in the carrying bladder”
― Mari Sandoz, The Horsecatcher

“Let me catch you, tame you, care well for you," he murmured in his coaxing, gentling way. "We will have a softness in our breasts for each other. I will warm to the sight of you on the hillsides, and you will come to my call, and if I am hurt you will not leave me, as I shall pursue anyone who steals you to the ends of the horizon. We shall harm no living thing, but together we shall be one, a tall man-horse, or, better, a horse-man, for there will be much more of you, Bear Colt, my brother, than of me.”
― Mari Sandoz, The Horsecatcher
