“Marta Jolicoeur: We all learned how to ride from George and had wonderful riding careers but more than that, George taught us how to be successful in life...George had us all sized up. He used to tell me that I'm a worrier and he was right! I used to get rally nervous in the ring when I was about fifteen, and he made me go around the ring, reciting out loud, 'I know I'm going to see a distance. It might be a little short or a little long, but I know I'm going to see something.' I would have to say it loud over and over again on course...”

“Katie Prudent: One of the greatest things about those times was that everything he [George Morris] taught us in the equitation had form with meaningful function.

“From that moment on, I knew what it was to be a good student. A good student doesn’t talk; she listens. I will say this about George: he was very clear about what was expected of us and told us when we did something wrong. Teenagers need that level of clarity sometimes for a lesson to sink in. There were so many others: don’t take short cuts, work ethic is everything, and if nothing else, be gutsy.”
