well let me tell you "rather and prefer" means the same so you are gonna use prefer in two ways. you can use "to + infinitive verb" or an -ing form after prefer you can say:

examples:

I prefer to eat a salad or

I prefer eating

and rather you just use it whit a verb whitout to or an -ing form

I rather go the park

I rather sit down

What is Holden's point about the difference between men owning a car then a horse?
