Quote by Proverb

Don't spur a willing horse.

Don't spur a willing horse.

Summary

This quote means that there is no need to push or rush someone who is already motivated and eager to do something. When someone is willing and enthusiastic about a task or goal, they will naturally put in their efforts and get things done without any additional pressure. Attempting to hurry or force their progress may interfere with their intrinsic motivation and hinder their performance. Therefore, it is best to trust and allow willing individuals to work at their own pace and to support them when needed.

We who have lived before railways were made belong to another world. It was only yesterday, but what a gulf between now and then! Then was the old world. Stage-coaches, more or less swift, riding-horses, pack-horses, highwaymen, knights in armor, Norman invaders, Roman legions, Druids, Ancient Britons painted blue, and so forth -- all these belong to the old period. But your railroad starts the new era, and we of a certain age belong to the new time and the old one. We who lived before railways, and survive out of the ancient world, are like Father Noah and his family out of the Ark.

William Makepeace Thackeray
