Famous quotes containing the words putting and/or styles:
“My attitude toward punctuation is that it ought to be as conventional as possible. The game of golf would lose a good deal if croquet mallets and billiard cues were allowed on the putting green. You ought to be able to show that you can do it a good deal better than anyone else with the regular tools before you have a license to bring in your own improvements.”
—Ernest Hemingway (1899–1961)
“There are only two styles of portrait painting; the serious and the smirk.”
—Charles Dickens (1812–1870)
