You don't have the game you played last year or last week. You only have today's game. It may be far from your best, but that's all you've got. Harden your heart and make the best of it.

Give me a man with big hands and big feet and no brains and I'll make a golfer out of him.

No one remembers who came in second.

It takes six years to make a golfer: three to learn the game, then another three to unlearn all you have learned in the first three years. You might be a golfer when you arrive at that stage, but more likely you are just starting.

My dear, did you ever stop to think what a wonderful bunker you would make?

Here Eddie, hold the flag while I putt out.

I would rather be of clear mind and decision with the wrong club than with an unclear mind and the right club.
