Famous quotes containing the words senior, men, professional and/or golf:

    I suffer whenever I see that common sight of a parent or senior imposing his opinion and way of thinking and being on a young soul to which they are totally unfit. Cannot we let people be themselves, and enjoy life in their own way? You are trying to make that man another you. One’s enough.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    If ye had not plowed with my heifer, ye had not found out my riddle.
    Bible: Hebrew Samson, in Judges 14:18.

    To the men who had answered his riddle, “Out of the eater came forth meat, and out of the strong came forth sweetness.”

    We have been weakened in our resistance to the professional anti-Communists because we know in our hearts that our so-called democracy has excluded millions of citizens from a normal life and the normal American privileges of health, housing and education.
    Agnes E. Meyer (1887–1970)

    And the wind shall say: “Here were decent godless people:
    Their only monument the asphalt road
    And a thousand lost golf balls.”
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
