An aphorism is nothing else but the slightest
QUOTES AND APHORISMS ON HORSES
A horse is dangerous at both ends and uncomfortable in the middle.
Ian Fleming (1908-1964, British writer, "James Bond")
They say Princes learn no art truly, but the art of horsemanship. The reason is, the brave beast is no flatterer. He will throw a prince as soon as his groom.
Ben Jonson (1573-1637, British dramatist, poet)
It takes a good deal of physical courage to ride a horse. This, however, I have. I get it at about forty cents a flask, and take it as required.
Stephen B. Leacock (1869-1944, Canadian humorist, economist)
The horse, the horse! The symbol of surging potency and power of movement, of action, in man.

I can make a General in five minutes but a good horse is hard to replace.
Abraham Lincoln (1809-1865, American President (16th))
My beautiful, my beautiful! That standest meekly by, with thy proudly-arched and glossy neck, and dark and fiery eye!
Caroline Sheridan Norton
I've often said there's nothing better for the inside of a man than the outside of a horse.
Ronald Reagan (1911-2004, American President (40th))
