Winning and losing...............

"I like trying to win. That's what golf is all about."

"I think I fail a bit less than everyone else."


"Professional golf is the only sport where, if you win 20% of the time, you're the best."


"Resolve never to quit, never to give up, no matter what the situation."


"This is a game. That's all it is. It's not a war."


"Nobody ever remembers who finished second at anything."


-Jack Nicklaus (the winner of 18 of golf's Major tournaments, and the second place finisher in 19 of golf's Major tournaments.)

"Always make a total effort, even when the odds are against you."


"I never rooted against an opponent, but I never rooted for him either."


"I've always made a total effort, even when the odds seemed entirely against me. I never quit trying; I never felt that I didn't have a chance to win."


"The most rewarding things you do in life are often the ones that look like they cannot be done."


"Winning isn't everything, but wanting it is."


"I don't look at it as a gamble, really. I just look at it as a harder shot. Why hit a conservative shot? When you miss it, you're in just as much trouble as when you miss a bold one."


"You must play boldly to win."


"Trouble is bad to get into but fun to get out of. If you're in trouble, eighty percent of the time there's a way out. If you can see the ball, you can probably hit it; and if you can hit it, you can move it; and if you can move it, you might be able to knock it in the hole. At least it's fun to try."


-Arnold Palmer (the winner of 7 of golf's Major tournaments, and the second place finisher in 10 of golf's Major tournaments.)
