Native Americans can have a way with words ...
Here is one of my favorite quotes. The word picture it paints is so elegant.

"What is life? It is the flash of a firefly in the night. It is the breath of a buffalo in the wintertime. It is the little shadow which runs across the grass and loses itself in the sunset." - Crowfoot, Blackfoot warrior and orator

I had an American Indian as a roommate in trade school. The comment on drinking is relevent. I assure you.
