ABSTRACT
We deal with horses; it’s in our hair. I grew up with horses, and I simply couldn’t live without them. I’m completely used to having them by me, although, as you know, they don’t work for us. We keep the horses rather than the horses keeping us. We could put the money to other uses, for instance, to buy the children what they need. But, you see, with horses it’s like, if one hasn’t got them, others say, “Let God strike him down; he’s just like a poor Romungro who hasn’t got anything.” That’s why I have horses. Not just me but the Rom in general. We go to the markets, we sell and we buy, we swap: We know how to do it.
