Míchílín’s Quotes

“There are no truths. Only stories.”
― Thomas King, Green Grass, Running Water

“History may well be a series of stories we tell about the past, but the stories are not just any stories. They're not chosen by chance. By and large, the stories are about famous men and celebrated events. We throw in a couple of exceptional women every now and then, not out of any need to recognize female eminence, but out of embarrassment.”
― Thomas King, The Inconvenient Indian: A Curious Account of Native People in North America

― Richard Wagamese

“While the hardware of civilization - iron pots, blankets, guns - was welcomed by Native people, the software of Protestantism and Catholicism - original sin, universal damnation, atonement, and subligation - was not, and Europeans were perplexed, offended, and incensed that Native peoples had the temerity to take their goods and return their gods.”
― Thomas King, The Inconvenient Indian: A Curious Account of Native People in North America
