I have a tip that can take 5 strokes off anyone's golf game. It is called an eraser
Arnold Palmer
Golf has more rules than any other game, because golf has more cheaters than any other game
Bruce Lansky
If you watch a game, it's fun. If you play at it, it's recreation. If you work at it, it's golf
Bob Hope
Golf is a game whose aim is to hit a very small ball into a even smaller hole, with weapons singularly ill-designed for the purpose
Winston Churchill
On the Old Course at St. Andrews: This is the origin of the game, golf in its purest form, and it's still played that way on a course seemingly untouched by time. Every time I play here, it reminds me that this is still a game
Arnold Palmer
Golf is a puzzle without an answer. I've played the game for 40 years and I still haven't the slightest idea how to play.
Gary Player
Being in politics is like being a football coach. You have to be smart enough to understand the game, and dumb enough to think it's important.
Eugene McCarthy
Nothing there but basketball, a game which won't be fit for people until they set the basket umbilicus-high and return the giraffes to the zoo.
Ogden Nash
You know why there are so many whitefish in the Yellowstone River? Because the Fish and Game people have never done anything to help them
Russell Chatham
When you talk to people who play, the fantasy-baseball player tends to be more ardent than the fantasy-football player. Baseball is a game that is played every day, and baseball as a game in fantasy has so many more permutations than does fantasy football.
Don Levy
When you play this game 20 years, go to bat 10,000 times, and get 3,000 hits, you know what that means? you've gone 0 for 7,000
