My mother’s mother come off the Oklahoma reservation. She’s full-blooded Cherokee Indian. And my father’s Irish. And my mother, on the other side, by her father, was Irish.[1]
I love the mountains. My—my mother’s mother was full-blooded Cherokee Indian out of the valleys here, and my conversion never taken that away from me; I love nature.[2]
Notice. One day I was… I’d go to the mountains, not so much to hunt the wild game, but to be alone. My mother’s almost a half Cherokee Indian. And the… My conversion never took that love of the wild out of me.[3]
Much of my time… My—my mother’s mother came from the reservation, and there’s been something in me that loves the outdoors.[4]
My mother… My mother’s mother come off this reservation up here. And my conversion didn’t take the call of the deep out of me; I love the woods.[5]
Down deep in my veins flows just a little bit of the blood. My mother’s grandmother come from the reservation. And I’ve always deemed that one of the greatest privileges, to say that down in me is part really American. For there’s a little background somewhere of Indian blood that I’m very happy for, very thankful.[6]
