Whether one was going to have a horse, or a dog, or a child, with that comes a great responsibility to raise them.

There's a difference between mastering something physical and working with an animal. There's a spiritual component to working with a horse. You're dealing with the spirit of a live animal that thinks and makes decisions.

I often tell people in the clinics, the human possesses the one thing that means more to the horse than anything in the world, and that is peace and comfort.

I just spend my life driving down the road, training horses and helping people.

Horses are very sensitive and perceptive. You don't have to be physical with them.

The horse is a great equalizer, he doesn't care how good looking you are, or how rich you are or how powerful you are-- he takes you for how you make him feel.

The horse can just be a great vehicle for some people to overcome things in their life that they might not be able to overcome otherwise.
