The standard you walk past is the standard you accept

Love that @Frances144
I just got goosebumps thinking of taking Amber XC. I will learnt that and recite it to myself when we are next out.

I suppose horse related I really should have quote the bottom line on my posts - I love this one very much

Bíonn grásta Dé idir an diallait agus an talamh.The grace of God is found between the saddle and the ground.

Ride the horse in the direction it is going
Werner Erhard

The workshop place I want to do has said the cob sounds complicated, we have different opinions about where we want to be going, but hopefully we can meet in the middle. And this is without the need of her going! They have her worked out already.

Came across this one today and it's so appropriate for my life right now I believe it may be my new favourite.

"Behold the cupboard in which I store my f**ks. Cast thine eyes upon it and thou shalt see that it is barren."

You made me smile, Joosie!

Lieutenant General David Lindsay Morrison AO

Isn't that a great quote? I stopped in my internet tracks when I read that and thought you know what, he is absolutely right. He sums up what I believe in.

Any other quotes that stopped you in your tracks?

This quote popped up into my head just now when I think of the forum.
We say we are horse lovers. But nobody cares or dares say a word.

Shameful isn’t it?

I think it's people don't dare voice a contradicting/constructively critical opinion because they are leapt on. The only acceptable comments are gushing praise or silence, people don't seem to see that the contradiction/constructive criticism is actually more caring than the excessive praise.

I must admit there are threads & posters that I steer clear of despite wincing when I read them. Yes I care, and if I knew them in real life I'd offer help, but on here at the moment I can't be bothered to deal with the "you may only praise" brigade.
