“This art brings, besides other advantages, courage to the heart.”

“The three things that lead men, by grace of God, to achieve all the good during this life and the next, are: to have the will to do everything virtuously and faithfully toward God and men; to have sufficient strength in their bodies and hearts to be able to do all difficult things and to oppose and cope with all adversities; and to be knowledgeable through experience of the things that belong their status and professions”

“It is also well known that good horses bring happiness to the heart of the riders, if they are at least reasonably skilled.”

“And I think that if everybody maintains a strong determination and will, only very few would not be able to become reasonable horsemen through lack of the minimal physical condition.”

“we very much praise this art because a healthy man, with strong will, if he does nor get fat, is able to keep his skill as he ages, which does not happen with most arts.”
