"Nothing lives long, only the earth and the mountains."
- White Antelope
I can't recall which colonist made this observation in relation to the Red Mann (yea, I spell it with two 'n's), but it went like this:
"They live well free, but as soon as you reduce them to a Christian community life, they fatten sicken, and die."
