Horse. The noblest conquest of man. Georges-Louis Leclerc de Buffon , General History of Animals, 1749 The most beautiful equestrian monument would be a horse that had knocked the man out of the saddle. Elias Canetti, The province of man, 1973 Where can man in the whole world / find nobility without pride, / friendship without envy, / beauty without vanity? / Here! / Where grace is woven of muscles, / and strength is forced by kindness, / He serves without servility, / fights without enmity, / there is nothing in the world more powerful, / nothing less violent, / nothing more patient. / Our past was born on his back, / our whole history is his work, / We are his heirs, / He is our heritage. Ronald Duncan , The Horse, 1954 If your horse says no, you either asked the wrong question or asked it in a wrong way. Pat Parelli When we ride a horse, we borrow freedom.

(Winston Churchill) Horses – if God made something more beautiful, he kept it to himself. (Anonymous) Click here if you want to see all our trips, tours, holidays and horse trekking in Italy.
