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.

The child who ran weeping to you with a cut finger is now brought home, smiling gamely, with a broken collar bone and incredible contusions - "It wasn't Jezebels fault Dad".

If your sister is in a tearing hurry to go out and cannot catch your eye, she's wearing your best sweater.

A cat can maintain a position of curled up somnolence on your knee until you are nearly upright. To the last minute she hopes your conscience will get the better of you and you will settle down again.

One small cat changes coming home to an empty house to coming home.

Riding turns 'I wish' into 'I can'.

Kittens are wide-eyed, soft and sweet. With needles in their jaws and feet.

Odd how much it hurts when a friend moves away- and leaves behind only silence.

For every person who has ever lived there has come, at last, a spring he will never see. Glory then in the springs that are yours.
