*Someone else's hay is always better than your own.
*Sometimes you have to nip someone's rump to get your point across.
*Foxes, deer, rabbits, turtles, and rocks are all capable of becoming Horse Eating Monsters.
*Why canter, when you can trot really really really fast?
*Hands always contain treats.
*If a hand appears empty, wiggling your upper lip against it over and over might make the treats appear. (see above)
*It's not your fault that a finger feels just like the tip of a carrot when it's near your nose.
*When the barn hand comes into the stall with your food, try to grab it away from them. After all, just because they didn't change their mind and take it away as far back as you can remember doesn't mean they won't start now.
*There's nothing quite like a good roll in the dirt.
*Being turned out in the pasture will instantly cure that sore foot that made you too lame for the human to ride.
*How big you are doesn't matter, it's all in the atitude.
*Don't piss off the bossmare.
