"How long did the Monk believe these things?<\/p>\n

Well, as far as the Monk was concerned, forever. The faith which moves
\n\tmountains, or at least believes  them  against  all the 
\n\tavailable  evidence  to  be  pink, was a solid and
\n\tabiding faith, a great rock against which the world could hurl whatever it
\n\twould, yet it would not be shaken. In  practice,  the 
\n\thorseknew, twenty-four hours was usually about its lot.<\/p>\n

So  what of this horse, then, that actually held opinions,and was
\n\tskeptical about things? Unusual behavior for a  horse,wasn’t it? An
\n\tunusual horse perhaps?<\/p>\n

No.  Although  it  was certainly a handsome and
\n\twell-builtexample of its species,  it  was  none  the 
\n\tless  a  perfectlyordinary  horse,  such  as
\n\tconvergent evolution has produced inmany of the places that life is to be
\n\tfound. They  have  alwaysunderstood  a great deal more than
\n\tthey let on. It is difficultto be sat on all  day,  every 
\n\tday,  by  some  other  creature,without forming an
\n\topinion about them.<\/p>\n

On  the  other  hand,  it is perfectly possible to
\n\tsit all day, every day, on top of another creature  and  not 
\n\thave  theslightest thought about them whatsoever." – from
