    Sitting Bull
    “Un guerrier n'est pas ce que vous croyez. Ce n'est pas quelqu'un qui part faire la guerre pour prendre la vie des autres.
    Pour nous un guerrier c'est quelqu'un qui sacrifie tout de lui pour le bien-être des autres.
    Il protège et prend soin des aînés, de ceux qui sont sans défense, de ceux qui ne peuvent le faire pour eux-mêmes et par dessus tout les enfants qui sont le futur de notre humanité.”
