Horses donโt think the same as humans. Something thatโs most unique about the horse, that I love, is not what he possesses but what he doesnโt possess. And that is greed, spite, hate, jealousy, envy, prejudice. The horse doesnโt possess any of those things. If you think about people, the least desirable people to be around usually possess some or all of those things. And the way God made the horse, he left that out.
Buck BrannamanI take the horsemanship very seriously and I treat it with the same integrity that one would any of the fine arts.
Buck BrannamanIn life, we don't know why things happen. I believe God is not responsible for the bad things that happen to you. Sometimes I think He's responsible for the good things, but sometimes it's something you shape up for yourself.
Buck BrannamanIt's a process and it's a matter of understanding the horse and through any of these little projects you have a beginning, a middle and an end. And if you made up your mind early when he's still scared, you'd think that wasn't working at all. Sometimes it might get darker, before it gets dawn. You might have to work at it a little bit in order for it to come out the other side.
