IN SEARCH OF EXTRA TERRESTRIALS
Unsolved UFO sightings... strange secrets of the moon... new evidence that alien astronauts are exploring the earth
Alan Landsburg 1976
Page 79
" The words of J. B. S. Haldane came back to haunt me. He once wrote, "Now my suspicion is that the universe is not only queerer than we suppose, but queerer than we can suppose. I suspect that there are more things in heaven and earth than are dreamed of in any philosophy. That is the reason why I have no philosophy myself, and must be my excuse for dreaming."

MAKHIPIYA LULA 1822 1909
Red Cloud made many speeches and became quite a spokesman in his time, he
is still quoted today. One of his most famous quotes, still echoes today by Indians everywhere
"They made us many promises, more than I can remember, but they kept only one,
they promised to take our land and they did."
THEY MADE US MANY PROMISES MORE THAN I CAN REMEMBER
BUT THEY KEPT ONLY ONE THEY PROMISED TO TAKE OUR LAND AND THEY DID

This is his farewell address to the Lakota people on July 4, 1903
RED CLOUD
MAKHIPIYA LULA 1822 1909
"My sun is set. My day is done. Darkness is stealing over me.
Before I lie down to rise no more, I will speak to my people.
Hear me, my friends, for it is not the time for me to tell you a
lie. The Great Spirit made us, the Indians, and gave us this land we live
in. He gave us the buffalo, the antelope, and the deer for food and
clothing. We moved our hunting grounds from the Minnesota to the Platte and
from the Mississippi to the great mountains. No one put bounds on us. We
were free as the winds, and like the eagle, heard no man's commands.
I was born a Lakota and I shall die a Lakota. Before the white man
came to our country, the Lakotas were a free people. They made their own
laws and governed themselves as it seemed good to them. The priests and
ministers tell us that we lived wickedly when we lived before the white man
came among us. Whose fault was this? We lived right as we were taught it
was right. Shall we be punished for this? I am not sure that what these people tell me is true.
As a child I was taught the Taku Wakan
(Supernatural Powers) were powerful and could do strange things. This was
taught me by the wise men and the shamans. They taught me that I could gain
their favor by being kind to my people and brave before my enemies; by
telling the truth and living straight; by fighting for my people and their hunting grounds.
When the Lakotas believed these things they were happy and they
died satisfied. What more than this can that which the white man offers us
give?
Taku Shanskan is familiar with my spirit and when I die I will go
with him. Then I will be with my forefathers. If this is not in the heaven
of the white man I shall be satisfied. Wi is my father. The Wakan Tanka of
the white man has overcome him. But I shall remain true to him.
Shadows are long and dark before me. I shall soon lie down to rise
no more. While my spirit is with my body the smoke of my breath shall be
towards the Sun for he knows all things and knows that I am still true to him."
Taku Wakan Wakan Tanka
BURY MY HEART AT WOUNDED KNEE.
An Indian History of the American West.
Dee Brown.
First Published in Vintage 1991.
"I did not know then how much was ended. When I look back now from the high hill of my old age, I can still see the butchered women and children lying heaped and scattered all along the crooked gulch as plain as when I saw them with eyes still young. And I can see that something else died there in the blood and mud, and was buried in the blizzard. A peoples dream died there. It was a beautiful dream…the nations hoop is broken and scattered. There is no centre any longer, and the sacred tree is dead."

Have mercy on us
That our people may live!
They say a herd of buffalo is coming;
It is here now!
Their blessings will come to us.
It is with us now!
