The main secret for a horse that is heavy upon the hand, is for the rider to have a very light one; for when he finds nothing to bear upon with his mouth, he infallibly throws himself upon the haunches for his own security.

  • -- Sir William Cavendish 威廉·卡文迪什爵士

对于一匹手上很重的马来说,主要的秘诀是骑手要有一匹很轻的马;因为当他找不到什么东西可以用他的嘴来支撑时,他就会为了自己的安全,毫无疑问地把自己摔在地上。
