I've said a thousand times, you can't go into a shop and buy a good golf game.

Forget your opponents; always play against par.

Of all the hazards, fear is the worst.

There is an old saying: if a man comes home with sand in his cuffs and cockleburs in his pants, don't ask him what he shot.

If a lot of people gripped a knife and fork the way they do a golf club, they'd starve to death.

You've just one problem. You stand too close to the ball after you've hit it.

Practice puts brains in your muscles.

Keep close count of your nickels and dimes, stay away from whiskey, and never concede a putt.

In golf, as in life, you get out of it what you put into it.

Never let up. The more you can win by, the more doubts you put in the other players' minds the next time out.

What abandoned course is that?

There is hope for the sinner to be made a saint.

Do not settle for labels that presume you will never heal. Believe in yourself. Find a tribe who understands and believes in you too. Don't ever give up.

...but as his father used to say when he had a few drinks taken, you couldn't expect bloody miracles when you were talking about God.

Tolerance becomes a crime when applied to evil.

Success breeds complacency. Complacency breeds failure. Only the paranoid survive.

The true church is not an organization controlled by the rules of men but a holy collection of living stones with Jesus Christ as the Cornerstone.

I am a very discreet human when it comes to other people.

I had long hair since I was 17 years old. It was time for me to let go. I hated being the guy at the wedding in a suit with a ponytail.

I really like comedy. There's always a choice, when you're writing: you can either go for the joke or you can go for the story, the important stuff.

There is no surer way to misread any document than to read it literally.
