THE FOOTNOTES

I HAVE A LITTLE BOOK OF NATIVE AMERICAN PROVERBS WRITTEN BY
GUY A. ZONA. PROVERBS ARE THE EXPERIENCE AND COLLECTED WISDOM OF A PEOPLE.
THEY
ARE USED TO INSTRUCT MEMBERS OF THAT CULTURE IN RULES OF CONDUCT AND
BEHAVIOR.
FOR EXAMPLE:

-JUDGE NOT BY THE EYE, BUT THE HEART. (CHEYENNE)

-BE KIND TO EVERYTHING THAT LIVES. (OMAHA)

-THERE IS NO DEATH, ONLY A CHANGE OF WORLDS. (DUWAMISH)

-DON'T LET YESTERDAY USE UP TOO MUCH OF TODAY,
(CHEROKEE)

-WHAT IS PAST ...... SHOULD NOT BE GRIEVED FOR.
(PAWNEE)

-NEVER HELP A PERSON WHO DOESN'T HELP ANYVBODY ELSE.
(HOPI)

-ONE FINGER CANNOT LIFT A PEBBLE. )HOPI)

-THOSE WHO LIE DOWN WITH DOGS GET UP WITH FLEAS.
(BLACKFOOT)

-WE WILL BE KNOWN FOREVER BY THE TRACKS WE LEAVE.
