Alan Duff
“Our people once were warriors. But unlike you, Jake, they were people with mana, pride; people with spirit. If my spirit can survive living with you for eighteen years, then I can survive anything.”
Alan Duff, Once Were Warriors

Witi Ihimaera
“This is the last spear. It is the seed of Paikea and we must return it to the land.”
Witi Ihimaera, The Whale Rider
