What is your favorite "horse quote"?? I read this in a book last night and thought a lot of us could relate. "If you have it, you have it for life. It is a disease for which there is no cure. You will go on riding even after they have to haul you on to a comfortable, wise old cob, with feet like inverted buckets and a back like a fireside chair... When I can't ride anymore, I shall still keep horses as long as I can hobble about with a bucket and a wheelbarrow. When I can't hobble, I shall roll my wheelchair out to the fence of the field where my horses graze, and watch them." By Monica Dickens - great-granddaughter of Charles Dickens. And I like this one: .... and God took a handful of southerly wind, blew his breath over it and created the horse....

I have a bunch- This is one of my favorite When you're young and you fall off a horse, you may break something. When you're my age, you splatter. ~Roy Rogers Many people have sighed for the 'good old days' and regretted the 'passing of the horse,' but today, when only those who like horses own them, it is a far better time for horses. ~C.W. Anderson No hour of life is wasted that is spent in the saddle. ~Winston Churchill and for a little fun A woman needs two animals - the horse of her dreams and a jackass to pay for it. ~Author Unknown
____________________ Its rarely the horses fault- Its usually a failure of the rider to communicate their requests in a manner that the horse can understand. Lisa |

How about this one: "Keep your voice soothing and low- even when things get western."

Oh gosh! I love the silly ones best: If the world was truly a rational place, men would ride sidesaddle~ Rita Mae Brown It takes a good deal of physical courage to ride a horse. This, however, I have. I get it at about forty cents a flask, and take it as required. ~Stephen Leacock My personal favorite- describes a lot of unfocused people I know: He flung himself on his horse and rode off madly in all directions. ~ Stephen Leacock I also like: I've spent most of my life on a horse.... the rest I've just wasted
