Native Quotes

I was shooting a mini-series for Sundance/BBC, called ‘Top of the Lake,’ that was shot by Jane Campion, who’s a beautiful native New Zealander and famous film director. The role I was playing was very intense, and they shaved half my hair off. So, I looked like this post-apocalyptic character Picture Quote #1

People are inclined to accept all stories of ancient times in an uncritical way -even when those stories concern their own native counties...Most people, in fact, will not take trouble in finding out the truth, but are more inclined to accept the first story they hear Picture Quote #1

I hold ‘Mi Tierra,’ my first Spanish-language album, very close to me because that was all done in my native tongue and won me my first Grammy Picture Quote #1

The reality is, is that the military is full of native nomenclature. That’s what we would call it. You’ve got Black Hawk helicopters, Apache Longbow helicopters. You’ve got Tomahawk missiles. The term used when you leave a military base in a foreign country is to go ‘off the reservation, into Indian Country.’ Picture Quote #1

The language of the land in the Parthian empire was the native language of Iran. There is no trace pointing to any foreign language having ever been in public use under the Arsacids Picture Quote #1

Even as I pursued a doctorate in the history of ideas in my native Denmark, I realized I had neither the encyclopedic training nor the passion for cool logic - not to mention the nerve - to follow in the footsteps of classical liberal philosophers and economists such as Robert Nozick, Friedrich Hayek, and Milton Friedman Picture Quote #1

As I’ve said a million times, I’m obsessed with Liya Kebede’s LemLem line. The pieces, made by artisans in her native Ethiopia, are perfect for summer! I’m also a big fan of jewelry line Lulu Frost. Designer Lisa Salzer and I have been friends forever, and I love how she incorporates vintage pieces into her jewelry Picture Quote #1

Yon Sun that sets upon the sea We follow in his flight; Farewell awhile to him and thee, My native land-Good Night! Picture Quote #1

As you know, today was Don’t Take Your Illegal Immigrant To Work Day here in Los Angeles. No, all across the nation they had a Day Without Immigrants, is what they call it. Or, as Native Americans call it, the good ol’ days Picture Quote #1

I profess accurately to describe native Africa - Africa in those places where it has not received the slightest impulse, whether for good or evil, from European civilisation Picture Quote #1

In the UK, most of the nasheeds that I did were in my native language, Urdu. Youngsters who could not understand the language came up to me... [and] said it was a great experience to just listen. That was actually very heart warming for me Picture Quote #1

I take great pleasure, every day, in seeing my work deeply rooted in our native soil Picture Quote #1

In my own view, the life expectancy of Native Americans in the United States is one of the really great moral crises that we face Picture Quote #1

I have a philosophy that white people would be interested in Native Americans because, first of all, it’s probably the only group as a country we all study and know the history and then never study again past the age of 10. So I think we have these things we believe are true, that are just not true about what an audience wants Picture Quote #1

Happy the man, whose wish and careA few paternal acres bound,Content to breathe his native airIn his own ground Picture Quote #1

Don’t think I am not homesick for America. I say ‘homesick’ advisedly because I am a man with two homes - America, which gave me hospitality for many happy years, and where my daughter was born; and my native England Picture Quote #1

I travel way too much to have any pets. But if I could have one, I’d want a quokka. They’re basically small kangaroos native to Western Australia Picture Quote #1

The accent of a man’s native country remains in his mind and his heart, as it does in his speech Picture Quote #1
