“Horsemanship through the history of all nations has been considered one of the highest accomplishments. You can't pass a park without seeing a statue of some old codger on a horse. It must be to his bravery, you can tell it's not to his horsemanship.” Has BeensNationsSeeingHighestHorseBraveryAccomplishmentParksStatuesHorsemanship Author:Will Rogers
“I think people are always looking for gurus. It's the easiest thing in the world to become a guru. It's quite terrifying. I once saw something fascinating here in New York. It must have been in the early seventies--guru time. A man used to go and sit in Central Park, wearing elaborate golden robes. He never once opened his mouth, he just sat. He'd appear at lunchtime. People appeared from everywhere, because he was obviously a holy man, and this went on for months. They just sat around him in reverent silence. Eventually he got fed up with it and left. Yes. It's as easy as that.” PeopleThinkingMenWorldHas BeensUsedLeftEasySilenceSawsNew YorkMonthsHolyMouthsGoldenSatParksFascinatingFedsSeventiesGuruRobesFed UpHoly ManCentral ParkLunchtime Author:Doris Lessing
