Famous quotes containing the word golf:

    “A golf course is nothing but a pool room moved outdoors.”
    —Frank Butler (1890–1967)

    “emerald as heavy
    as a golf course, ruby as dark
    as an afterbirth,
    diamond as white as sun
    on the sea ...”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    “My attitude toward punctuation is that it ought to be as conventional as possible. The game of golf would lose a good deal if croquet mallets and billiard cues were allowed on the putting green. You ought to be able to show that you can do it a good deal better than anyone else with the regular tools before you have a license to bring in your own improvements.”
    —Ernest Hemingway (1899–1961)
