“We still name our military helicopter gunships after victims of genocide. Nobody bats an eyelash about that: Blackhawk. Apache. And Comanche. If the Luftwaffe named its military helicopters Jew and Gypsy, I suppose people would notice.”

“It is better to have less thunder in the mouth and more lightning in the hand.”

“It is too often the case,â€� Crook said, “that border newspapers â€� disseminate all sorts of exaggerations and falsehoods about the Indians, which are copied in papers of high character and wide circulation, in other parts of the country, while the Indiansâ€� side of the case is rarely ever heard. In this way the people at large get false ideas with reference to the matter. Then when the outbreak does come public attention is turned to the Indians, their crimes and atrocities are alone condemned, while the persons whose injustice has driven them to this course escape scot-free and are the loudest in their denunciations. No one knows this fact better than the Indian, therefore he is excusable in seeing no justice in a government which only punishes him, while it allows the white man to plunder him as he pleases.”

He also purchased another young captive Apache woman from New Mexico to accompany them. Both women were loaded onto an oxcart bound for Santa Fe in a journey that could take at least three months.”

“Lt. Charles Gatewood: â€� You’re talking about the most perfect fighting machine God ever put on this earth. â€� An Apache can find water and food to live on for a year in a desert that would kill a white man inside three days. â€� He can hide on bare ground fifty feet away so well you can’t see him. â€� He can ride a horse to death, cut a meal from it, and run forty miles on foot at a pace that would kill a cavalry horse. â€� What you’re talking about, General, is the tiger of the human species.”
