“Hockey is a sport for white men. Basketball is a sport for black men. Golf is a sport for white men dressed like black pimps.”

If you’re not nervous, it means you don’t care.

I have a big-picture outlook, I am willing to fall, and I understand it’s ok to fall, but I am going to get back up, I may take a step back, but in the end, I am going to take a giant leap forward.

Don’t force your kids into sports. I never was. To this day, my dad has never asked me to go play golf. I ask him. It’s the child’s desire to play that matters, not the parent’s desire to have the child play. Fun. Keep it fun.

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.

As a kid, I might have been psycho, I guess, but I used to throw golf balls in the trees and try and somehow make par from them. I thought that was fun.

It’s important to relax and not put too much pressure on oneself, players must be patient when striving to improve.

I think the hardest part about Golf is being committed to your wife.

You can win all the tournaments you want, but the majors are what you’re remembered for. It’s how you’re measured as a champion in our sport. The majors are where it’s at.

You hit a bad shot, you have to get over it right there and then so you can get focused on the next one.

No matter how good you get you can always get better, and that’s the exciting part.

Achievements on the golf course are not what matters, decency and honesty are what matter.

The amount of meetings I’ve been in – people would be shocked. But that’s how you gain experience, how you can gain knowledge, being in meetings and participating. You learn and grow.

The greatest thing about tomorrow is, I will be better than I am today.

My kid is not going to wear a flat bill.

My body is a little bit sore from all of the practicing and playing and training.

Personal sins should not require press releases and problems within a family shouldn’t have to mean public confessions.

The past is like a handful of dust. It filters through your fingers, disappearing little by little. I wish, for one day, I could go back. In another life, I would do things differently.

People who live in society have learnt how to see themselves, in mirrors, as they appear to their friends. I have no friends: is that why my flesh is so naked?

We’ve got to learn to love appearances.

Behaviour is a mirror in which every one displays his own image.

It appears necessary to go back to first principles in search of the most simple truths, and to dispute with some prevailing prejudice every inch of ground.

Society is the form in which the fact of mutual dependence for the sake of life and nothing else assumes public significance and where the activities connected with sheer survival are permitted to appear in public.

When we say something about something, we make it lie there before us, which means at the same time to make it appear.

My original appearance now is impure and that is why I try so hard to hide it from everyone harder than I work on keeping myself alive.
