Brutality begins where skill ends.
Egon von Neindorff
Confidence is knowing you are prepared.
Ray Hunt

At each stage of work the horse must be taken to his limit, but never over the limit.
Walter Zettl

Nuno Oliveira
The secret in riding is to do few things right. The more one does, the less one succeeds. The less one does, the more one succeeds.
Nuno Oliveira
Trust and respect are two-way streets. We want the horse to accept us as leaders of the herd, to guide them safely and to provide protection and comfort. In return, they will give us their respect, and willing submission to our ideas about what to do next, and when and where. But this respect can only be based on well deserved trust.
Walter Zettl
Calm, forward, straight.
Alexis L´Hotte
The most effective way to do it, is to do it.
Amelia Earhart
If you are going to teach a horse something and have a good relationship, you don’t make him learn it you let him learn it.
Ray Hunt
