A good day to die

A good day to die or It is a good day to die may refer to:

History

• "Today is a good day to die!" is a quotation widely but inaccurately attributed to leader Crazy Horse before the Battle of the Little Bighorn. The earliest published reference is Judson Elliott Walker, Campaigns of General Custer in the North-west, and the Final Surrender of Sitting Bull (1881), in which the phrase is attributed to Low Dog. It is sometimes claimed to be a translation from the Lakota language, "Hóka-héy!" but it is not. Both phrases are used in context by Black Elk in Black Elk Speaks (1932).
