Famous quotes containing the word golf:
“Years ago we discovered the exact point, the dead center of middle age. It occurs when you are too young to take up golf and too old to rush up to the net.”
—Franklin Pierce Adams (18811960)
“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)
“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 (18991961)
