What I don’t understand is these people who go on the street wearing riding clothes, and they have never been on a horse. They ought to have their heads examined, really. It’s a joke. But, let’s face it, we live in a fantasy world. – C. Z. Guest
I remember when I did the pilot, and I though no network is going to want to do this. How could that happen? A half Chinese guy walking the old west that doesn’t fire one gun and never gets on a horse? – David Carradine
I have a birthmark on the inside of my left knee that resembles an upside-down sea horse. – Gabourey Sidibe
I knew the story of ‘War Horse’ very well. I had read the book even before I did the auditions. I’m a big fan of Michael Morpurgo. – Celine Buckens
The thing with gymnastics is people don’t always know the events. So they’ll ask me about the rings, and I’ll have to say, ‘Women don’t do that.’ Or they’ll use the wrong words, like horse instead of vault. They get confused. – McKayla Maroney
Any artist that is even surviving right now is a dark horse because things change pretty fast. You’re a superstar one day and wake up the next day and you’re anonymous. To be successful in any way is beating the odds right now, I think. – Chad Kroeger
When you get on a good horse, you just know. They are powerful, they stop quickly, they can turn in both directions, and they are fast. – Facundo Pieres
When Henry Ford made cheap, reliable cars people said, ‘Nah, what’s wrong with a horse?’ That was a huge bet he made, and it worked. – Elon Musk
It’s very good for you, riding. You know how every model is like, ‘I do yoga.’ Well, I find horses to have the same effect, in that you have to put your ego aside and concentrate on making the horse do the things you want it to do, and move in the way you want it to move – particularly if you’re doing dressage. – Edie Campbell
When I saw the movie, I said, I wish I had heard the music. I would have ridden the horse differently. – Eli Wallach
I saw a documentary on the Naadam festival that happens in Mongolia during the summer. One of the features of it is a horse race across the plains that all the young men enter – some as young as 12 years old. It’s such a spectacular sight. It’s incredible to think that this is a tradition that has been going on for centuries. – Caitriona Balfe

We know that appropriators will fight these cutbacks. But by eliminating earmarks, we can stop the horse trading that grows agency budgets. – Eric Cantor
My father is a huge horse racing fan, so I was introduced to the sport long before ‘Seabiscuit.’ But the role made me an even bigger fan. Horse racing is one of my favorite sports. – Elizabeth Banks
I describe my personal style as ‘mythic space horse with chocolate box tendencies.’ – Gwendoline Christie
It was never physically dangerous except when I nearly fell off a horse, but it was physically arduous – especially when you were working late at night. – Derek Jacobi
It’s… a hard thing for a director, to think you came up with a shot, something from your mind, and someone died while doing it. It’s the worst thing you’ll ever have to live with. It was very hard for me to get back on the horse again. – Michael Bay
The difference with football is you’re out on the pitch, you feel as though you can do something about it, or score a goal. But when that horse goes down to post as an owner you have no involvement whatsoever. It’s a lonely old place in the stand. It’s just down to man and beast. – Michael Owen
