I didn’t and don’t want to be a ‘feminine’ version or a diluted version or a special version or a subsidiary version or an ancillary version, or an adapted version of the heroes i admire. i want to be the heroes themselves.
Hero Special Want
There is a story in zen circles about a man and a horse. the horse is galloping quickly, and it appears that the man on the horse is going somewhere important. another man standing alongside the road, shouts, «where are you going?» and the first man replies, «i don't know! ask the horse!» this is also our story. we are riding a horse, and we don't know where we are going and we can't stop. the horse is our habit energy pulling us along, and we are powerless.

By being a racing driver you are under risk all the time. by being a racing driver means you are racing with other people. and if you no longer go for a gap that exists, you are no longer a racing driver because we are competing, we are competing to win. and the main motivation to all of us is to compete for victory, it's not to come 3rd, 4th, 5th or 6th. i race to win as long as i feel it's possible. sometimes you get it wrong? sure, it's impossible to get it right all the time. but i race designed to win, as long as i feel i'm doing it right.

The current publishing scene is extremely good for the big, popular books. they sell them brilliantly, market them and all that. it is not good for the little books. and really valuable books have been allowed to go out of print. in the old days, the publishers knew that these difficult books, the books that appeal only to a minority, were very productive in the long run. because they're probably the books that will be read in the next generation.

How the horse dominated the mind of the early races especially of the mediterranean! you were a lord if you had a horse. far back, far back in our dark soul the horse prances...the horse, the horse! the symbol of surging potency and power of movement, of action in man!

Similar Quotes
Dying was nothing and he had no picture of it nor fear of it in his mind. but living was a field of grain blowing in the wind on the side of a hill. living was a hawk in the sky. living was an earthen jar of water in the dust of the threshing with the grain flailed out and the chaff blowing. living was a horse between your legs and a carbine under one leg and a hill and a valley and a stream with trees along it and the far side of the valley and the hills beyond.
Inspiring Horse Dust
The most conspicuous thing about suffering is, as w.h. auden once observed, its banality. the day is green, the sun is shinging, someone is eating, or opening a window, the torturer's horse is scatching its innocent behind on a tree, and in a mere second someone we love is dead.
Horse Love Is Tree
Horses (thou say'st) and asses men may try, and ring suspected vessels ere they buy; but wives, a random choice, untried they take; they dream in courtship, but in wedlock wake; then, nor till then, the veil's removed away, and all the woman glares in open day.
Dream Horse Men
"so we'd get in a horse and buggy and we would go and park under a tree and we'd read poetry to each other." and my grandfather told me all the stories. i mean, their way of communicating... they didn't have telephones, either, so they communicated with the written word. and i really... that's how old [bill] clinton has become to me [speaking of how he met hillary clinton].
