The story we know is not true. Actually the colonist landed in an area of 14,000 Native Americans and in the worse land in the area. Powhatan pretty much left them alone. I think he figured that they would die from the bad water and disease . He was fairly right. Within 6 months there were only 34 men left alive of the 104 who came. It wasn't until after his death that the brother of Powhatan attacked the colony. The story about Smith is also not true. He did NOT save Jamestown. He was only there a very few months and he lied about his contribution to the settlement in a book he wrote several years later. He also made up the story about Pocahontas and she died young so couldn't refute his story. The man who did save Jamestown was the husband of Pocahontas and gave tobacco seeds to the colony. That was John Rolfe.
"Let the white man's country be my country, and his kindred my kindred" - Princess Pocahontas.
(This quote tells that Pocahontas just wanted to have peace and to be treated equal.)
" If you walk in the footsteps of a stranger, you'll learn things you never knew you never knew." - Princess Pocahontas.
(This tells that she followed the English and became one of them to show that she is not any different from them.)
No quotes are known by her. She lived in VA and by 1616 she had died in England.The story we know is not true.

Pocahontas really did say the following quotes sometime in her life.
- "What do you mean its not like you"
-"If you walk the footsteps of a stranger, you'll learn things you never knew, you never knew"
Reagan is cool
well whatever she did it is written in history book
"Ummm, I speak Algonquin, not English!"
John I Love You
Pocahontas (or Matoaka) spoke the Powhatan language, so she used the words chamah or netab - perhaps both.These were words of greeting - chamah is about the same as "welcome" and netab means "I am your friend"; I can not think of any other historic language where such a friendly greeting is used.
Not sure
Pocahontas never wrote a book. She died at the age of 22 and I doubt she could write in English very well. Evita: In My own Words is the biography of Eva Peron.
Visionary, intuitive, headstrong, courageous, kind
He didn’t say those words. He wrote in his book that he did, but he lied about his time in Jamestown. He didn’t know Pocahontas and she was a little girl. Nor did she save his life. He was a adventurer, and was out to promote himself as a important person.
She told her dad(the tribe leader) not to kill John Smith. Also some say Pocahontas and John Smith went into a relationship.
