"Donkeys possess the affectionate nature of a Newfoundland, the resignation of a cow, the durability of a mule, the courage of a tiger, and the intellectual capability only slightly inferior to man's."
-Robert Green,
The first miniature donkey importer into the United States (New Jersey Farm) in 1929

"I'm not so sure that the donkeys intellect is inferior to man's!"
~Bill Poole, Pooles Paradise Hill Farm 2008
