I found a few more great quotes from Buck Brannaman.  Costco has a magazine called “The Costco Connection.”  Buck is a member of Costco.  I found an article, in the magazine, regarding an interview by Mr. Steve Fisher with Buck.  I found some more words of wisdom that I want to pass along to everyone.

“Whether one was going to have a horse, or a dog, or a child, with that comes a great responsibility to raise them.”

“Horses don’t think the same as humans.”  Something that’s most unique about the horse, that I love, is not what he possesses but what he doesn’t possess.  And that is greed, spite, hate, jealousy, envy, prejudice.  The horse doesn’t possess any of those things.  If you think about people, the least desirable people to be around usually possess some or all of those things.  And the way God made the horse, he left that out.”

“By the time you’ve had a relationship with a horse for a while, there are characteristics in the way the horse behaves with you and around you and responds to you that are directly (related) to some of your traits as a human being…whether it’s insecurity or aggression or fear or hate.”

All quotes are from Buck Brannaman.  I hope you enjoy the words of wisdom!!  I felt the quotes were great and had great meaning.
