Famous quotes containing the word golf:

    Their only monument the asphalt road
    And a thousand lost golf balls.”
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    If there is any larceny in a man, golf will bring it out.
    Paul Gallico (1897–1976)

    Years ago we discovered the exact point, the dead center of middle age. It occurs when you are too young to take up golf and too old to rush up to the net.
    Franklin Pierce Adams (1881–1960)
