U.S. Professional Match Play Championship

Famous quotes containing the words professional, match and/or play:

“I sometimes wonder whether, in the still, sleepless hours of the night, the consciences of ... professional gossips do not stalk them. I myself believe in a final reckoning, when we shall be held accountable for our misdeeds. Do they? If so, they have cause to worry over many scoops that brought them a day’s dubious laurels and perhaps destroyed someone’s peace forever.”
—Mary Pickford (1893–1979)

“Seducing one’s neighbor to a good opinion and then afterwards believing devoutly in this neighbor’s opinion—who can match women in this clever ploy?”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

“The actor is too prone to exaggerate his powers; he wants to play Hamlet when his appearance is more suitable to King Lear.”
—Sarah Bernhardt (1845–1923)
