Father Gaston: The school, what was happening there. It was wrong.
Saul (22 Yrs.): They called it a school, but it was never that. There were no grades or examinations. The only test was our ability to endure.
Jack Lanahan: You're gonna make it to the show and you'll be a role model for your kind.
Saul (22 Yrs.): My kind?
Jack Lanahan: Yes, an inspiration.
Saul (22 Yrs.): You don't know a damn thing about me.
Jack Lanahan: All I need to know is you got a gift like no other. I've seen you on the ice. I know what you can do, I know how it makes you feel, and I'm not blind to the fact that it's killing you not to play the way you can.
Saul (22 Yrs.): You got no idea what kills me or my kind, do you?
Evan: Have you ever wept, Saul?
Saul (22 Yrs.): No.
Evan: You need to find a place where you can, here with us or on your own... but you need to find it. Your silence is killing you.
Saul (15 Yrs.): They got shocked seeing Indians skate. Think it's their game. Not ours.
Virgil: They play for the same reasons we do, the feeling. Nobody owns that.
Saul (22 Yrs.): One day, my great-grandfather, Shabogeesick, walked out of the bush leading a strange black animal. Our people had never seen such a creature, and were afraid. It is a horse, he told them, and it comes bearing great teachings. A thunder will crash through our hearts and minds, and we must learn to ride the horses of change. It is what the future asks of us. Our survival depends on it.
Fred Kelly: Now that's what I call a game.
Ernie Jack: You didn't even score, man.
Saul (22 Yrs.): They told me to tell my story.
Saul (6 Yrs.): He says your new name is Aaron.
Lonnie (9 Yrs.): I have a name. My father's, Lonnie.
Saul (6 Yrs.): He says his... He says Lonnie is his dad's name.
Father Quinney: The Lord God is your father now. Your human father has nothing more to offer you.
Lonnie (9 Yrs.): He's a trapper.
Saul (6 Yrs.): He says he's a trapper.
Sister Sara: He's a heathen.
Lonnie (9 Yrs.): He's Ojibway.
Fred Kelly: I'm 26. I've been working graveyards in the freaking mines since I was 16 years old. You gotta give it a shot for all of us.
Virgil: If you don't go, you're a coward. Let it beat you without even trying.
Buddy Blackwolf: And if you stay, I'll be the one doing the beating.
Saul (22 Yrs.): What if I don't cut it?
Fred Kelly: You will.
Saul (22 Yrs.): You believe that?
Fred Kelly: I ain't the one that's gotta believe it.
Saul (22 Yrs.): My name is Saul Indian Horse. And this is my story.
Naomi: The spirts of the lake are glad we are here.
Ruth: That's blasphemy. We've gotta give thanks to Jesus.
Naomi: Your Jesus never fished these waters.
Virgil: We just got a challenge from another white team. Everybody's gonna want to play us.
Buddy Blackwolf: Guess those boys like getting their asses kicked.
Father Gaston: You are a glory, Saul.
