I spent hours as a kid on the putting green of the local golf course imagining I was sinking a putt to win the Masters.

A lot of my buddies also played golf, but when it came to going to the beach or on the boat and chasing girls, they usually went that way and I went to the golf course.

If I thought I had hurt my chances of winning another major just because I was chasing money around, I'd wind up kicking myself.

The Masters is one of golf's greatest traditions and Augusta is one of the best courses in the world. They are synonymous. It's an event that every golfer, and golf fan, looks forward to.

The fame aspect of winning the Masters... besides being married and becoming a father, that's a strong third there.

I have a lot of offers to play for appearance fees. It's nice gravy, but it's not a big motivating factor for me, to go here and there just for money.

Out here, it's just you and the ball.

If I can raise more money for charities, or get more Canadian kids to play golf, the green jacket will mean even more.

Playing hockey, there were a lot of guys bigger than me, so I knew I was going to get hit and have to deal with it. Gotta hit back.

The beauty of golf, you're in charge out here.

The course is going to make you look silly sometimes. You have to be able to accept that and move on.

You see, in this country are a number of youths who do not like to work, and the college is an excellent place for them.

Your belief about others creates an unconscious behavior pattern in you which creates the reality!

The devil's weapon is an illusion of our imagination.

The geologic column is a bunch of balarky.

While information is the oxygen of the modern age, disinformation is the carbon monoxide that can poison generations.

But for my faith in God, I should have been a raving maniac.

When I was a teenager in New York, I was buying antique clothes. I still am.

Damned, damned be the rich! May not even their fingernails be left!... I'm sure that they are going to Hell head-first.

Sometimes, all it takes is one gesture, one word, to change the course of someone's life. Even if you know it won't last forever.

I'm a good woman for a bad man.
