"It must be confessed that horses at present work too exclusively for men, rarely men for horses; and the brute degenerates in man's society."

Without doubt, God is the universal moving force, but each being is moved according to the nature that God has given it. God directs angels, men, animals, brute matter, in sum all created things, but each according to its nature: and man having been created free, he is led freely.

— Joseph de Maistre
