Horses aren't lazy and they're not greedy and they're not jealous and they're not spiteful, they're not hateful. They're not that way. But the human can sometimes only describe a horse in the way that they view other human beings.

More quotes by Buck Brannaman
I often tell people in the clinics, the human possesses the one thing that means more to the horse than anything in the world, and that is peace and comfort.
Buck Brannaman
When riding, ask yourself what will my horse get out of it if I get what I want? Many times, human nature is to take and to not give anything back.
Buck Brannaman
With a horse, if you make it easy for him to do the right thing, that's what he will logically do, but it's not necessarily true with the human. You will see humans that will beat their heads against the wall rather than open the door and walk through it.

A horse can have a job and not be a slave. He can look forward to it and enjoy it. That's the same for me.
Buck Brannaman
Nobody has to lose for me to succeed and that is a unique job. Everybody wins, horse wins, people win, I win.

On a horse there is a perfect position of balance where he doesn't feel like he's pushing you along with him or dragging you along with him. It's like two converging currents in a river, where those currents converge, there is a point where there is no movement, no energy and that's what you're thinking when you're on the back of a horse.

You can't look forward and backward at the same time...........so I choose to look forward.

That's the cool thing about horses - they don't have prejudice. They don't care if you're tall or thin or if you're dark or if you're light, or if you're rich or you're poor, if you're handsome or not so handsome.

A lot of times, rather than helping people with horse problems, I'm helping horses with people problems.

I'm still on the move, I'm getting better because I'm still studying. I still want to be a better horseman.
Buck Brannaman
I started to realize that things would come much easier for me once I learned why a horse does what he does. This method works well for me because of the kinship that develops between horse and rider.

When you're younger, you ride with 90% physical and 10% mental. But if you could learn how to use 90% mental and 10% physical you'd be better off.

Horses are incredibly forgiving. They fill in places we're not capable of filling ourselves.

One of the biggest challenges of a horsemen is to be able tot control your emotions.

If you miss the beginning, the basics, then you are destined to go back and visit the basics.

You want your kids to feel happy and good about themselves. The rest they'll work out on their own. You never know what your kids will be drawn to.

There have been so many times over the years where people have said Man, I thought I was just coming to this deal to get a little handier with my horse and I'll say Well, in the beginning, I thought that's all you were coming for too. But it turns out it's about something else.

Some guys make their careers off one horse kind of a trick horse, a wonder horse. I'm not knocking that, but for me I'm trying to get better and study. That means taking out new horses. It's a life study. When I've finished a horse, I turn him out and basically stop riding him, except taking him to the occasional branding so I can enjoy him.

They say nerves heal real slowly. Lots of things about us heal real slowly.

Don't get on a horse that's moving.
