Famous quotes containing the words men and/or golf:
“For men tied fast to the absolute, bled of their differences, drained of their dreams by authoritarian leeches until nothing but pulp is left, become a massive, sick Thing whose sheer weight is used ruthlessly by ambitious men. Here is the real enemy of the people: our own selves dehumanized into “the masses.” And where is the David who can slay this giant?”
—Lillian Smith (1897–1966)
“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)
