"There is something about the outside of a horse that is good for the inside of a man."
"Look back at our struggle for freedom,
Trace our present day's strength to it's source;
And you'll find that man's pathway to glory
Is strewn with the bones of the horse."
In riding a horse, we borrow freedom”
A lovely horse is always an experience.... It is an emotional experience of the kind that is spoiled by words.
All I pay my psychiatrist is the cost of feed and hay, and he'll listen to me any day.
When I bestride him, I soar, I am a hawk: he trots the air; the earth sings when he touches it; the basest horn of his hoof is more musical than the pipe of Hermes.
The essential joy of being with horses is that it brings us in contact with the rare elements of grace, beauty, spirit, and fire.
