'They will make the Gate. No! the horses are running mad. Look! the men are thrown; they are running on foot. No, one is still up, but he rides back to the others. That will be the Captain [Faramir]: he can master both beasts and men.'

—Beregond, Return of the King

I've talked a few times (>_>) about how impressive it is that Faramir not only manages to keep his horse under control while being chased by five Nazgûl, but he actually turns back towards the Nazgûl to help the soldiers following him (only 3-4 people in the book, btw). And, of course, it's immensely courageous to ride back towards five(five!!!) Nazgûl despite the impact of the Black Breath (this is when he "catches" it). But it's also even more impressive that Faramir manages to get a horse to ride towards a bunch of Ringwraiths in the first place, considering that every other horse has gone mad and thrown their riders.

And then later:

The watchers held their breath. 'Faramir must be there,' they said. 'He can govern man and beast.'
