“The greatest thing about tomorrow is, I will be better than I am today…There is no such thing as a setback. The lessons I learn today I will apply tomorrow, and I will be better.”

I treat golf as a sport. I let other people treat it like a hobby.

Golf is fluid. It’s always changing. It’s always evolving. First of all, you never master it.

I do plan to return to golf one day. I just don’t know when that day will be.

Every sport evolves. Every sport gets bigger and more athletic, and you have to keep up.

It will always be the ball and me.

I always feel pressure. If you don’t feel nervous, that means you don’t care about how you play. I care about how I perform. I’ve always said the day I’m not nervous playing is the day I quit.

In order to hit a good golf shot at that moment in time when you’re standing over the ball, you must believe that golf shot is the most important things in your life.

My mind is my biggest asset.

Winning is not always the barometer of getting better.

Golf is a great way for someone to learn discipline, responsibility and sportsmanship?

I don’t want to become as good as I once was. I want to become better.

I think the guys who are really controlling their emotions, are going to win.

All I know is I’ve tried my best.

I don’t just want to be the best black player or the best Asian player. I want to be the best golfer ever.

I’m trying as hard as I can, and sometimes things don’t go your way, and that’s the way things go.

Talent is something you are born with, and a skill is something you develop. 99% of what you need to succeed in golf are skills.

Once you start changing a name, you see, there’s no reason ever to stop. One always hears one that sounds better.

Better to reign in hell than serve in heav’n.

All travel has its advantages. If the passenger visits better countries, he may learn to improve his own. And if fortune carries him to worse, he may learn to enjoy it.

No man will be a sailor who has contrivance enough to get himself into a jail; for being in a ship is being in a jail, with the chance of being drowned. A man in a jail has more room, better food, and commonly better company.

You won’t believe what you can accomplish by attempting the impossible with the courage to repeatedly fail better.

It is better to live rich than to die rich.

Every man ought to be in love a few times in his life, and to have a smart attack of the fever. You are better for it when it is over: the better for your misfortune, if you endure it with a manly heart; how much the better for success, if you win it and a good wife into the bargain!

Maybe water is not entirely lost when soaked into sand. Maybe it finds a better resting place to call home; and I hope she did too.
