The atmosphere, the earth, the water and the water cycle – those things are good gifts. The ecosystems, the ecosphere, those are good gifts. We have to regard them as gifts because we couldn’t make them. We have to regard them as good gifts because we couldn’t live without them. – Wendell Berry
You look at a horse, and he’s such a majestic, beautiful, powerful creature that you can’t not be impressed. I love scraping the water off them when I wash them down because you go all round the contours, and its muscle and body, and you just think, ‘Ooh, isn’t this a magnificent creature.’ You’re touching it, and it’s just solid, carved muscle. – Victoria Pendleton
