Second chief : [Tonto has brought a wounded John Reid to the Indian camp, where he can hide from Butch Cavendish] The white man has made many promises to us, yet they keep only one... they promise to take our land from us, and they took it. You see the suffering and the misery they bring to your people, yet you bring one to us, to nurse back to health? Tonto, why?
Tonto : Nobody has reason to fill their hearts with hatred for the white man more than I. He's taken from me my wife and my child. But the man I brought here is my brother, and I will protect his life with my own if I have to. And if I'm wrong - and he proves to be an enemy - then I, Tonto, will decorate my lance with this white man's hair. But until that day comes... let him not be judged by his color, but by his heart, as a man, and a friend.
