What is Best in Life?

The Open Steppe, Fleet horse, Falcons at your wrist, and wind in your hair.

WRONG!

CONAN! What is best in life?!?!

I can't believe this isn't already here! Simply one of the best scenes... ever.

Though I thought the other General's line was actually something a little more Zen. Proclaiming instead, "The open steppe, a fleet horse, falcons at your breast and the wind in your hair".

I'm no equestrian, but I believe a "fleet horse" that he refers to is one sure footed and not easily frightened. The falcons seemed to further indicate his affinity with the wild - falconry being a sport of the nobility. Assuming I heard it all correctly ofcourse, even the original source is not very clear.

"The greatest pleasure is to vanquish your enemies and chase them before you, to rob them of their wealth and see those dear to them bathed in tears, to ride their horses and clasp to your bosom their wives and daughters. - Genghis Khan
