Chief White Eagle of the Ponca Tribe

When you are in doubt,

be still, and wait;

When doubt no longer

exists for you,

then go forward

with courage.

So long as mists

envelop you, be still;

Be still until the sunlight

pours through and dispels

the mists, and surely it will.

Then act with courage.

—Chief White Eagle
