“This apparent conflict between theory and practicality, and between individualism and collectivism, has led some American archivists to a crisis of professional identity. They see archivists in Europe and Canada enjoying a clearer sense of professional purpose, a greater unity of agreed upon principles and methods, a stronger recognition and respect from the public.”
Randall C. Jimerson, American Archival Studies: Readings in Theory and Practice

Pekka Hämäläinen
“The governor found particularly troubling the gun trade chain that extended from Louisiana through the Taovayas to the Comanches; it had the potential, he argued, of becoming "our detriment, especially since this kingdom is so limited in armaments and its settlers too poor to equip themselves and too few to sustain the burden of continuous warfare." Finally, Cachupín was loath to use force against the Comanche simply because New Mexico needed their trade for its economic well-being.”
Pekka Hämäläinen, The Comanche Empire

John Trudell
“No matter what they ever do to us, we must always act for the love of our people and the earth. We must not react out of hatred against those who have no sense.”
John Trudell

Fred Rogers
“There are three ways to ultimate success:
The first way is to be kind.
The second way is to be kind.
The third way is to be kind.”
Fred Rogers

“Art is the one place we all turn to for solace. We turn to it constantly, whether you are listening to music, or pop in a film; you want to escape reality, and if you thinking deeply, you want to engage in art in a complex way. Art allows us to navigate the more complicated parts of our lives in a way that is more palpable. We don’t go to the movies just to see a movie; we go for the experience. I’m very interested in the experience. Art has saved my life on a regular basis. I wanted to offer that experience to children, to enlist them, to show them the possibilities that are in the arts, to persuade them to pursue it for both their own personal salvation and for changing the way we are understood.”
Carrie Mae Weems
