Success is always somebody else's opinion of you; but it doesn't amount to a damn compared to your own opinion of yourself.

I was lying ten and had a thirty-five foot putt. I whispered over my shoulder: "How does this one break?" And my caddie said, "Who cares?"

I would rather play Hamlet with no rehearsal than TV golf.

I was born in an elevator, and - as my mother said - naturally it was going down. She said, "All I remember is telling your father, 'That's it! Never again!'" That's why I'm an only child.

Everything that is truly worthwhile - I think passion is involved in your approach to it. No matter what it is.

Anything truly worthwhile does not come easy. If it did, it would not be all that worthwhile.

When I'm reading material, if I'm a little bit afraid of a part and I'm willing to admit that to myself, then I'll do it, definitely. If I'm worried about being able to do it, to get it -I absolutely just love it.
