Bridle Quotes

Ned made a tremendous rattling, at which Bullet took fright, broke his bridle, and dashed off in grand style; and would have stopped all farther negotiations by going home in disgust, had not a traveller arrested him and brought him back; but Kit did not move. Augustus Baldwin Longstreet
William Cavendish quote: "The horse's neck is between the two reins of the bridle, which..."
The horse's neck is between the two reins of the bridle, which both meet in the rider's hand. William Cavendish
My great religion is a belief in the blood, the flesh, as being wiser than the intellect. We can go wrong in our minds. But what our blood feels and believes and says, is always true. The intellect is only a bit and a bridle. David Herbert Lawrence
