“Reardan was the opposite of the rez. It was the opposite of my family. It was the opposite of me. I didn’t deserve to be there. I knew it; all of those kids knew it. Indians don’t deserve shit.”
--The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian by Sherman Alexie “I never thought I’d have a story worth telling, at least not one about me. I always knew I was different, but until I discovered I had my own story, I never thought I was anything special. My destiny began to unfurl during my very last game at school. What started with an accident on the court ended with the single most devastating look I ever got from my father. And it made me want to die.”
--Hero by Perry Moore "Don't give up! I believe in you all
A person's a person, no matter how small! And you very small persons will not have to die If you make yourselves heard! So come on, now, and TRY!" --Horton Hears a Who by Dr. Seuss “I thought they were smart,” Dicey insisted. “like you.”
