"It excites me that no matter how much
machinery replaces the horse, the work it
can do is still measured in horsepower...
even in this space age. And although a
riding horse often weighs half a ton, and
a big drafter a full ton, either can be led
about by a piece of string if he has been
wisely trained. This to me is a constant
source of wonder, and challenge."
Marguerite Henry
