"I don't agree that the dog in a manger has the final right to the manger even though he may have lain there for a very long time I don't admit that right I don't admit for instance that a wrong has been done to the red Indians of America or the black people of Australia I don't admit that a wrong has been done to these people by the fact that a stronger race a higher grade race a more worldly wise race to put it that way has come in and taken their place"
