The main idea in golf as in life, I suppose is to learn to accept what cannot be altered and to keep on doing one's own reasoned and resolute best whether the prospect be bleak or rosy.

Rhythm and timing are the two things which we all must have, yet no one knows how to teach either.

I will tell you privately it's not going to get better, it's going to get worse all the time, but don't fret. Remember, we play the ball where it lies, and now let's not talk about this, ever again.

Golf is a game that is played on a five-inch course

Golf is a game that creates emotions that sometimes cannot be sustained with the club still in one's hand.

If I needed advice from my caddie, he'd be hitting the shots and I'd be carrying the bag.

I can play the game only one way. I must play every shot for all there is in it. I cannot play safe.
