I realised how important it was to people. We heard of people who were thinking of mortgaging their house in order to bring their ancestors home, so we were very committed to trying to secure the collection and have it under iwi management and control.– Sharon Dell, former Director of the Whanganui Regional Museum
I just didn't want my kuia to be hanging somewhere in New Zealand, somewhere in another part of the world, with somebody that she never knew.– Ngahina Gardiner of iwi Ngā Wairiki
