The Black Stallion's Sulky Colt Quotes

“In the first great surge Jimmy saw Bonfire’s hooded head in front.”
― Walter Farley, The Black Stallion's Sulky Colt

“Look upon him, all of you!”
― Walter Farley, The Black Stallion's Sulky Colt

“This is my colt,” he wanted to shout to those around him. “This is the result of all I’ve worked for. Look upon him. He carries the blood of the finest mare I ever bred and raced. No, not a great mare. She saved her greatness for her colt, this colt in whose blood along with hers is that of a fine stallion. A great stallion but one never before bred to a harness mare; therefore untried and unsought by the rest of you who seek change only by turning night into day with your bright lights and fancy frills! You seek perfection in the extravaganza of your colored stages such as this. I seek it in a horse. And there he is. Look upon him, all of you!”
