John Trudell

Joseph Boyden
“When I die, nieces, I want to be cremated, my ashes taken up in a bush plane and sprinkled onto the people in town below. Let them think my body is snowflakes, sticking in their hair and on their shoulders like dandruff.”

Lawrence Hill
“To gaze into another persons face is to do two things: to recognise their humanity and to assert your own.”

Joseph Boyden
“I say that humans are the only ones in this world that need everything within it...But there is nothing in the world that needs us for its survival. We aren't the masters of the earth. We're the servants.”
Joseph Boyden, The Orenda
