I Have Said That I Was Lucky Enough To Have Been Born At The Right Time To Have Seen These People In Their Native Dignity And Elegance; And Thanks To Him In Whose Hands The Destinies Of All Men Are That My Life Has Been Spared To Visit Most Of The Tribes In Every Latitude Of The American Continent And My Hand Enabled To Delineate Their Personal Looks And Their Modes To Be Seen And To Be Criticized After The People And Myself Shall Have Passed Away.. It Has Been Sneeringly Said That I Have Spoken Too Well Of The Indians (Better To Speak Too Well Of Them Than Not To Speak Well Enough) That I Have Flattered Them (Better To Flatter Them Than To Caricature Them; There Have Been Enough To Do This). If I Have Overdone Their Character They Have Had In Me One Friend At Least; And I Will Not Shrink From The Sin And Responsibility Of It.
