Famous quotes containing the words natives of and/or natives:

    “I am sorry to say we whites have a sad reputation among many of the Polynesians. The natives of these islands are naturally of a kindly and hospitable temper, but there has been implanted among them an almost instinctive hate of the white man. They esteem us, with rare exceptions, such as some of the missionaries, the most barbarous, treacherous, irreligious, and devilish creatures on the earth.”
    —Herman Melville (1819–1891)

    “Stay on the beach. The natives over there are cannibals. They eat liars with the same enthusiasm as they eat honest men.”
    —Earl Felton, and Richard Fleischer. Captain Nemo (James Mason)
