A favorite paragraph of mine from Oklahoma State University about Justin Morgan:
"Doing it all and doing it well, Justin Morgan remained sound of eye, wind, and limb throughout a lifetime of two ordinary horses.
That should have been enough, but the stallion added still more, showy, ground-covering gaits with speed to spare at any one of
them; a gentle disposition that made him safe enough for a child to handle yet spirited enough for any horseman, beauty men would
recall decades after his death; and a rare courage that made men who lost bets on him hit their flagons of rum and say,
'to the little Morgan!' and drink deeply."
