This was one of the saddest passages I've read in a while. 😔

"The Apache was a hard foe to subdue" according to John Gregory Bourke, "not because he was full of wiles and tricks and experienced in all that pertains to the art of war, but because he had so few artificial wants and depended almost on what his great mother -- Nature -- stood ready to supply. Our government had never been able to starve any of them until it had them placed on a reservation."

From Analogia, by George Dyson.
