A horse is the projection of peoples' dreams about themselves - strong, powerful, beautiful - and it has the capability of giving us escape from our mundane existence.

Horses have really distinct personalities, and they're magical in many ways.

It's thrilling. There's birth and death and frustration and victory in raising horses. It's like a little microcosm of life is built into the short lives of these creatures.

A horse is a thing of beauty... none will tire of looking at him as long as he displays himself in his splendor.

But we ought to consider the natural form and shape of a horse, that we may work him according to nature.

You must in all Airs follow the strength, spirit, and disposition of the horse, and do nothing against nature; for art is but to set nature in order, and nothing else.

If a poet knows more about a horse than he does about heaven, he might better stick to the horse, and some day the horse may carry him into heaven.

I love horses. There's something practical and mystical about them.

I grew up in the prolonged survival of the great age of the horse, with harness and saddle and sleigh bells and horse pictures, not as antiques but the facts of our lives.

Horses are a mirror of who you are. They're emotionally dependent on you.
