Devil's Doorway (1950)

Fritz Leiber: Mr. Poole

Quotes 

• Lance Poole : The whites outnumber us, Father. The war is over. All the wars... even yours. The country is growing up. They gave me these stripes wiithout testing my blood. I led a squad of white men. I slept in the same blankets with them, ate out of the same pan. I held their heads when they died. Whey should it be any different now?

  Mr. Poole : You are home. You are an Indian.

• Mr. Poole : Drop my body in a deep shaft. Then you must keep this earth always, for I am part of it. An Indian without land loses his soul... and his heart with it. Sweet Meadows is our mother... the earth.
