In my opinion, a horse is the animal to have. Eleven-hundred pounds of raw muscle, power, grace, and sweat between your legs - it's something you just can't get from a pet hamster. ~Author Unknown
From Wakan-Tanka, the Great Mystery, comes all power. It is from Wakan-Tanka that the holy man has wisdom and the power to heal and make holy charms. Man knows that all healing plants are given by Wakan-Tanka, therefore they are holy. So too is the mo'�hėno'ha (horse) holy, because it is the gift of Wakan-Tanka. ~Maza Blaska Oglala Sioux Chief.

This is the song from "Father Ted"
"My Lovely Horse"
"My Lovely Horse
Running through the.. field
Where are you going
With your fetlocks blowing
In the... wind
I want to shower you with sugar lumps
And ride you over...fences
I want to polish your hooves every single day
And bring you to the horse... dentist
My lovely horse
You're a pony no... more
Running around
With a man on your back
Like a train in the night
Like a train in the... (hang on I can get this)... night!

There is also this lovely poem that's read every year at the end of the Horse of the Year show:
Where in this wide world can man find nobility without pride,
Friendship without envy,
Or beauty without vanity?
Here, where grace is served with muscle
And strength by gentleness confined
He serves without servility; he has fought without enmity.
There is nothing so powerful, nothing less violent.
There is nothing so quick, nothing more patient.
England's past has been borne on his back.
All our history is in his industry.
We are his heirs, he our inheritance.

There is nothing so quick, nothing more patient.

All our history is in his industry.
We are his heirs, he our inheritance.

"What it comes down to is that anybody can win with the best horse. What makes you good is if you can take the second or third-best horse and win." Aragon, Vicky
