“I am tired of fighting. Our chiefs are killed...The old men are all dead. He who led the young men is dead...it is cold, and we have no blankets. The little children are freezing to death...I want to have time to look for my children and see how many of them I can find. Maybe I shall find them among the dead. Hear me, my chiefs! I am tired. My heart is sick and sad. From where the sun now stands I will fight no more forever.” Chief Joseph, Nez Perce, 1877
