"We know that you are strong

and now we wait to receive your answer to what we have said

Black Hawk to General H. Atkinson, 1833 who had captured him and held him prisoner till his death, in his dedication to the general of Black Hawks autobiography

"I am now an obscure member of a nation that formerly honored and respected my opinions. The path to glory is rough and many gloomy hours obscure it.

May the Great Spirit shed light on yours -

and may you never experience the humilty that the power of the American government has reduced me to,
is the wish of him, who in his native forests
was once as proud and bold as yourself."
