The ideal chief is "a wise, dispassionate man (who) thinks much & thinks slowly, with great caution & deliberation, before he speaks his whole mind."
Sayenqueraghta, a Seneca chief
quoted in The Divided Ground: Indians, Settlers, and the Northern Borderland of the American Revolution by Alan Taylor
