"Listen with your heart, you will understand"
"Have you ever heard the wolf cry to the blue corn moon
Or asked the grinning bobcat why he grinned?
Can you sing with all the voices of the mountain?
Can you paint with all the colors of the wind?"

"The rainstorm and the river are my brothers,
The heron and the otter are my friends.
And we are all connected to each other,
In a circle, in a hoop that never ends."
