Give me as much as possible quotes in the book that has a meaning of the importance of family.

It doesn't have to be a quite that someone said (") but it should be any sentence in he book

Please, I need 8 sentences, but it's okay if u find less than 8, I tried my best finsing some but I can't remember where exactly Saul or even Richard Wagamese wrote about family because I read the whole book.

I have to use these sentences in my essay, so they really should have the meaning of family and strengths and weaknesses of appearing the family with Saul.

I just need the sentences from you and I will explain them, you don't have to write me the explanation.

Thank you so much!

My people are from the Fish Clan of the northern Ojibway, the Anishinabeg, we call ourselves. We made our home in the territories along the Winnipeg River, where the river opens wide before crossing into Manitoba after it leaves Lake of the Woods and the rugged spine of northern Ontario. They say that our cheekbones are cut from those granite ridges that rise above our homeland. They say that the deep brown of our eyes seeped out of the fecund earth that surrounds the lakes and marshes. The Old Ones say that our long straight hair comes from the waving grasses that thatch the edges of bays. Our feet and hands are broad and flat and strong, like the paws of a bear. Our ancestors learned to travel easily through territories that the Zhaunagush, the white man, later feared and sought our help to navigate. Our talk rolls and tumbles like the rivers that served as our roads. Our legends tell of how we emerged from the womb of our Mother the Earth; ch 1

I wondered what would become of us there. I wondered if the spirit, the monitous, of Gods Lake would look upon us with pity and compassion, if we would flourish on this land that was ours alone. ch 5
