In the speech titled "I Will Fight No More Forever", Chief Joseph laments how his people had been killed and scattered, leaving family members dead and missing, without food. He says <em>"The old men are all dead. It is the young men who say yes or no"</em>, implying that the young men are now the ones in authority to do and decide what the future becomes. He also reveals <em>"I am tired; my heart is sick and sad"</em>, and decided to fight no more.
