Quotes 

• Deborah Wright : Dull Knife, the old chief is much too sick. He'll never make such a trip. Listen...

  Dull Knife : If he lives to ride even a mile closer to home, he will die as a man should. There will be no more dying in this place.

• Little Wolf : I pray the young one will give me sons. But I want them to be born where I, and all my people before me, were born.

  Dull Knife : Even a dog can go where he likes... but not a Cheyenne.

• Little Wolf : You spoke the truth for us. This we will not forget - but there will be no more school.

  Deborah Wright : Oh, no! Oh, no, please don't do that to the children!

  Little Wolf : The white man's words are lies. It is better that our children not learn them.

  Deborah Wright : It is not the words... but who speaks them. Has speaking white men's words made you a liar?

  Dull Knife : Our words were learned long ago, when some white men still spoke the truth.

• Secretary of the Interior : You made one of the most heroic march in history. I am sure the people of this country will understand and will agree, when they hear the facts.

  Dull Knife : The people... Who will tell them? Who will tell the people... about Fort Robinson?

  Secretary of the Interior : I will, I promise you. Now will you take the gamble?
