“You have noticed that everything an Indian does is in a circle. That is because the power of the world always works in circles, and everything tries to be round… The sky is round, and I have heard that the earth is round like a ball, and so are the stars. The wind in its greatest power, whirls. Birds make their nests in circles, for theirs is the same religion as ours. Even the seasons form a great circle in their changing and always come back again, to where they are. The life of a man is a circle, from childhood to childhood. And so it is in everything where power moves…” Black Elk, Oglala Lakota
