The Hob-Goblin of Little Minds




All right, I guess that it does seem inconsistent, but yes, I am supporting this horse show. The HOA/AIHR show's purpose is not mindless competition. It is to demonstrate everything special about the Spanish horse and to recognize the breeds that can trace their roots back to the first horses of America.

If you are in that part of the country in September stop by and you will see a show like you have seen before.

  1. I will save those of you who, like me, are less well-versed in literature than Steve the trouble of looking it up again.

    A foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds, adored by little statesmen and philosophers and divines. With consistency a great soul has simply nothing to do. He may as well concern himself with his shadow on the wall. Speak what you think now in hard words and to-morrow speak what to-morrow thinks in hard words again, though it contradict every thing you said to-day.
