"The honor of the people lies in the moccasin tracks of the woman. Walk the good road.... Be dutiful, respectful, gentle and modest my daughter... Be strong with the warm, strong heart of the earth. No people goes down until their women are weak and dishonored, or dead upon the ground. Be strong and sing the strength of the Great Powers within you, all around you."

~Village Wise Man, Lakota tribe

They merely move it from their faces into their hearts.

I always enjoyed the Dr. Seuss books though. Green eggs and ham, still rings in my thoughts at times.
