“The leader at the front and the workers behind the scenes.”

When one house dies, a second lives.

He who stands lives; he who sits perishes.

For a woman and land, men perish.

To rest on human support is unreliable, to rest on the earth is sure.

It would be better to let others praise.

When one chief disappears another is ready to appear. No one is indispensable.

Early arrivals have the pick.

One canoe which we are all in with no exception.

Your Museum from Home

An active person will remain healthy while a lazy one will become sick.

Have two strings to your bow.

Don’t die like an octopus, die like a hammerhead shark.

There is food at the end of my hands.

As an old net withers, another is remade.

As man disappears from sight, the land remains.

Turn your face toward the sun and the shadows will fall behind you.
