To my mother, and to her sisters, all of whom have managed their lives -- and golf games -- with grace and style, unflagging good humor and boundless enthusiasm.

Three things there are as unfathomable as they are fascinating to the masculine mind: metaphysics, golf, and the feminine heart.

--Arnold Haultain, The Mystery of Golf

Golf may be a sophisticated game. At least, it is usually played with the outward appearance of great dignity. It is, nevertheless, a game of considerable passion, either of the explosive type, or that which burns inwardly and sears the soul.

--Bob Jones
