I used to have a notebook in which I wrote down any inspirational quotes that I found.

Sadly I don't know what happened to that notebook, so I'd like to use this forum to gather together any good quotes on the nature of dressage, horses, sports psychology, life, etc.

So please add as many as you like

"Preserve his natural gaits. Preserve his personality. Preserve his instinct to go forward. Do this and you must be successful because you are respecting nature's wisdom."

- Franz Mairinger

"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"

~ Pam Brown
