Indigenous Small-numbered Peoples of The North

Famous quotes containing the words indigenous, peoples and/or north:

    What is a country without rabbits and partridges? They are among the most simple and indigenous animal products; ancient and venerable families known to antiquity as to modern times; of the very hue and substance of Nature, nearest allied to leaves and to the ground,—and to one another; it is either winged or it is legged. It is hardly as if you had seen a wild creature when a rabbit or a partridge bursts away, only a natural one, as much to be expected as rustling leaves.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Uniform ideas originating among entire peoples unknown to each other must have a common ground of truth.
    Giambattista Vico (1688–1744)

    I am fearful when I see people substituting fear for reason.
    —Edmund H. North (1911–1990)
