17 Quotes From Pocahontas - The Walt Disney Film

Famous As: Native American
Born On: 1596 AD
Died On: 1617
Born In: Gloucester County, Virginia
Died At Age: 21

Pocahontas was a Powhatan Native American, known for her alliance with English colonists during their first years in Virginia. Going by a famous historical anecdote, as a little girl she had placed her head on the head of an Englishman, John Smith, at the time of his execution, thus, saving his life. Later, she tied the knot with a colonist and changed her name to Rebecca Rolfe. Her marriage to the colonist helped in pacifying the truculent relations between the colonists and the natives for a length of time.

In 1995, Walt Disney produced a film, Procahontas, which is loosely based on the life of Procahontas. We have curated some quotes from the same film. Have a look!
