From page 79:

"Native Americans recognize that learning is based on sensory input and the most important 'text' is NATURE."

"Intellect must be balanced by intuition and caring, so that information will be used appropriately, for the good of all and for the future generations."

"If the teacher teaches us the importance of learning and how to learn, she has done her job."

From page 80:

"Questioning for the sake of clarification or to clear up misunderstanding is good, but we must be careful not to stunt our own

creativity,

problem-solving ability, or

survival by asking questions too soon."

"If we are going to use the intellect, let's use it well, with clarity and social and ecological responsibility."

"Learning should promote ethical values, not erode them."
