"I will tell you something about stories . . . They aren't just entertainment. Don't be fooled. They are all we have, you see, all we have to fight off illness and death . . . You don't have anything if you don't have stories."
Leslie Marmon Silko
Laguna Pueblo
"The stories are the communication device of the land and the people.
Through the stories, the ceremony, the gap between isolate human being
and lonely landscape is closed."
