Grass Quotes

The golfer has more enemies than any other athlete. He has fourteen clubs in his bag, all of them different; 18 holoes to play, all of them different, every week; and all around him is sand, trees, grass, water, wind and 143 other players. In addition, the game is 50 percent mental, so his biggest enemy is himself Picture Quote #1

The moment the average golfer attempts to play from long grass or a bunker or from a difficult lie of any kind, he becomes a digger instead of a swinger Picture Quote #1

Life in the country teaches one that the really stimulating things are the quiet, natural things, and the really wearisome things are the noisy, unnatural things. It is more exciting to stand still than to dance. Silence is more eloquent than speech. Water is more stimulating than wine. Fresh air is more intoxicating than cigarette smoke. Sunlight is more subtle than electric light. The scent of grass is more luxurious than the most expensive perfume. The slow, simple observations of the peasant are more wise than the most sparkling epigrams of the latest wit Picture Quote #1

A man who has once looked with the archaeological eye will never see quite normally. He will be wounded by what other men call trifles. It is possible to refine the sense of time until an old shoe in the bunch grass or a pile of nineteenth century beer bottles in an abandoned mining town tolls in one’s head like a hall clock Picture Quote #1

A rough should have high grass. When you go bowling they don’t give you anything for landing in the gutter, do they? Picture Quote #1

My rule was I wouldn’t recruit a kid if he had grass in front of his house. That’s not my world. My world has a cracked sidewalk Picture Quote #1

Neither be cynical about love; for in the face of all aridity and disenchantment it is perennial as the grass Picture Quote #1

Life is fragile, like the dew hanging delicately on the grass, crystal drops that will be carried away on the first morning breeze Picture Quote #1

I don’t believe in taking much of a divot, especially with the longer irons. You want to barely comb the grass through impact. It’s the only way to catch the ball on the second groove up from the bottom of the clubface. That’s where you want to make contact: on the second groove Picture Quote #1

When she walked... she stretched out long and thin like a little tiger, and held her head high to look over the grass as if she were treading the jungle Picture Quote #1

Look at those animals and remember the greatest scientists in the world have never discovered how to make grass into milk Picture Quote #1

We live, we die, and like the grass and trees, renew ourselves from the soft earth of the grave. Stones crumble and decay, faiths grow old and they are forgotten, but new beliefs are born. The faith of the villages is dust now... but it will grow again... like the trees Picture Quote #1

She sat down in a weed patch, her elbows on her knees, and kept her eyes on the small sterious world of the ground. In the shade and sun of grass blade forests, small living things had their metropolis Picture Quote #1

There are some things that are real, that you can see, that you can observe, like the moon, and grass and things. But for ideas to become real, they have to be played on your senses Picture Quote #1

Believing that the rustle in the grass is a dangerous predator when it is only the wind does not cost much, but believing that a dangerous predator is the wind may cost an animal its life Picture Quote #1

I knew I could play well on the grass, but I really played so well today. I knew exactly what I had to play to beat her. I just did everything I could in the moment. I was very focused for every point. I knew that I had to go forward for every shot I was playing to push her back, and yeah, I did it Picture Quote #1

Never define your success by somebody else’s success. I never looked at another man’s grass to tell how green mine should be Picture Quote #1

I am the animal at the head of the pack. … I either get eaten, or I get the good grass Picture Quote #1

I must say this now about that first fire. It was magic. Out of dead tinder and grass and sticks came a live warm light. It cracked and snapped and smoked and filled the woods with brightness. It lighted the trees and made them warm and friendly. It stood tall and bright and held back the night Picture Quote #1

The true poet, is like a man who’s happy anywhere, in endless measure, if he’s allowed to look at leaves and grass, to see the sun rise and set Picture Quote #1

Fairway: a narrow strip of mown grass that separates two groups of golfers looking for lost balls in the rough Picture Quote #1

Our shipment of mowers was lost at sea and while we waited, winter descended and covered our green lawns with snow. That taught me a key lesson, the importance of timing. The shipping company lost the lawnmowers! By the time they showed up no one wanted them, as you can’t cut grass when it’s covered with snow Picture Quote #1

People eat meat and think they will become as strong as an ox, forgetting that the ox eats grass Picture Quote #1

More than that, I believe that the grass is green because green is restful to the human eye, that the sky is blue to give us an idea of the infinite. And that blood is red so that murder will be more easily detected and criminals will be brought to justice. Yes, and I believe that I shall live forever, but I shall live without reason Picture Quote #1

In a snowfall that covers the winter grass a white heron uses his own whiteness to disappear Picture Quote #1

The power that makes grass grow, fruit ripen, and guides the bird in flight is in us all Picture Quote #1

It is forbidden to walk on the grass. It is not forbidden to fly over the grass Picture Quote #1

I though about what death is, what a loss is. A sharp pain that lessens with time, but can never quite heal over. A scar. The idea occurred to me there on the site. Take a knife and cut open the earth, and with time the grass would heal it. As if you cut open the rock and polished it Picture Quote #1

My young men shall never work, men who work cannot dream; and wisdom comes to us in dreams. You ask me to plow the ground. Shall I take a knife and tear my mothers breast? Then when I die she will not take me to her bosom to rest. You ask me to dig for stone. Shall I dig under her skin for her bones? Then when I die I cannot enter her body to be born again. You ask me to cut grass and make hay and sell it and be rich like white men. But how dare I cut off my mother’s hair Picture Quote #1

Details of the many walks I made along the crest have blurred, now, into a pleasing tapestry of grass and space and sunlight Picture Quote #1
