Famous quotes by Jack Nicklaus:

"I'm a firm believer that in the theory that people only do their best at things they truly enjoy. It is difficult to excel at something you don't enjoy."

"Confidence is the most important single factor in this game, and no matter how great your natural talent, there is only one way to obtain and sustain it: work."

"Focus on remedies, not faults."

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

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

"Golf is a better game played downhill."

"A kid grows up a lot faster on the golf course. Golf teaches you how to behave."

"My ability to concentrate and work toward that goal has been my greatest asset."

"Through the years of experience I have found that air offers less resistance than dirt."

"I never hit a shot, not even in practice, without having a very sharp, in-focus picture of it in my head. First I see the ball where I want it to finish, nice and white and sitting up high on the bright green grass. Then the scene quickly changes, and I see the ball going there: its path, trajectory, and shape, even its behavior on landing. Then there is a sort of fade-out, and the next scene shows me making the kind of swing that will turn the previous images into reality."

"Don't be too proud to take lessons. I'm not."

"He's going to be around a long, long time, if his body holds up. That's always a concern with a lot of players because of how much they play. A lot of guys can't handle it. But it looks like he can."

"Naturally it is nice to be widely known for worthwhile achievements, but it forces you to do many things which you don't like to do and these things take up time you want for other things."

"I'm probably the only bottom-heavy golfer in the country."

"The long irons are the nemesis of the average golfer. I'm convinced that the underlying reason for this is that he keeps hearing how hard they are to handle. They're not that difficult, truly."

"You have to trust your kids. They have to experience life, and you just hope you've provided them a foundation for what's right and what isn't."

"I've been fortunate over my career to make a little history on the 16th hole at Augusta National."

"I've wanted to design golf courses ever since I was a kid. I suppose it comes from the way I've played the game. To find the proper way to play any hole, I've always begun by asking myself what the architect has tried to do with it."

"Sometimes, I'm an ogre. I can be short. I'll walk into the office some days and I've gotten up on the wrong side of the bed, and everybody knows it. I'm a perfectionist. I like to be organized, and I like to get everything done today."

"I think that Pebble Beach is my favorite golf course to go to. I think Augusta is my favorite place to go play golf."
