“In the life of the Indian there is only one inevitable duty – the duty of prayer – the daily recognition of the Unseen and Eternal. He sees no need for setting apart one day in seven as holy days, since to him all days are God’s.” Ohiyesa, Santee Dakota

Interesting, I’ve seen the first sentence of that quote attributed to Charles Eastman and after a search I see that the full quote is attributed to Ohiyesa. Either way, those daisies look perfectly beautiful.

Thanks, Cedric! The flowers are from the CSU Experimental Gardens.

I did some research on Charles Eastman and it seems they are one and the same.

Well there you go. That makes sense now 🙂

You are surely the Quotemeister, Monte. And the flowers are a beautiful illustration of your point.

Now thats a new title. 🙂 I have a half dozen twitter accounts I follow who offer daily quotes. I have begun collecting some of them in a file. Thanks, Tom!
