“One thing to remember is to talk to the animals. If you do, they will talk back to you. But if you don’t talk to the animals, they won’t talk back to you, then you won’t understand, and when you don’t understand you will fear and when you fear you will destroy the animals, and if you destroy the animals, you will destroy yourself.”
- Chief Dan George of the Tsleil-Waututh Nation, author, poet, and an Academy Award-nominated actor
Was he in The Outlaw Josey Wales? Loved his character.
He sure was! He played Lone Watie and, in my opinion, stole every scene his character was in!
