Charles Abourezk: Attorney

Quotes 

• Leonard Crow Dog : Mr. White Man, we do not want to fight with you. Only you're system and the laws...

  Attorney : We're a Nation of laws, not men.

  Gladys Bissonette : Do your laws fight your wars for you! Do they have your children? Are they there when you die?

• Gladys Bissonette : He said a long time ago, 83 years ago, the ghost dancers gave up their arms at this very spot. And they were massacred!

  Attorney : I can't undo that. I didn't do it. Nixon didn't do it. None of us were there. We can't change that. Let's move on. We have to start with you laying down your weapons.

  Gladys Bissonette : Hey! Asking didn't get you here. Being right didn't get you here, our guns got you here.
