  4.  "You must teach your children that the ground beneath their feet is the ashes of our grandfathers.  So that they will respect the land, tell your children that the earth is rich with the lives of our kin.  Teach your children that we have taught our children that the earth is our mother.  Whatever befalls the earth befalls the sons of earth...  This we know, the earth does belong to man: man belongs to the earth.  This we know.  All things are connected..." • Chief Seattle 1851
