The fame aspect of winning the Masters... besides being married and becoming a father, that's a strong third there.

Canada is hockey.

I punch left-handed.

I actually had a Bobby Orr action figure. You could put the pads on him and skates and all that. I was 7, and he was still playing.

If I thought I had hurt my chances of winning another major just because I was chasing money around, I'd wind up kicking myself.

The course is going to make you look silly sometimes. You have to be able to accept that and move on.

I was not great behind the counter. I had a week off without asking for it. Another time, we had a cart go up in flames, and we went out on another cart, which we wrecked by running it into the cart that was on fire.

As for my country, I don't live there, but obviously I'm very proud to be Canadian.

A lot of my buddies also played golf, but when it came to going to the beach or on the boat and chasing girls, they usually went that way and I went to the golf course.

I have a lot of offers to play for appearance fees. It's nice gravy, but it's not a big motivating factor for me, to go here and there just for money.

When I'm on with my putting, I'm as good a putter as there is, probably.

Playing hockey, there were a lot of guys bigger than me, so I knew I was going to get hit and have to deal with it. Gotta hit back.

You can be six behind on the back nine and still win the tournament.

If I can raise more money for charities, or get more Canadian kids to play golf, the green jacket will mean even more.

The beauty of golf, you're in charge out here.

A lot of my buddies also played golf, but when it came to going to the beach or on the boat and chasing girls, they usually went that way and I went to the golf course to practice. Sometimes they'd come from the beach at dark to pick me up at the course.

Anything over-handed, I do left-handed. Like throwing a ball or serving in tennis. Otherwise, right-handed, like writing and shaving.

Becoming the first Canadian male to win a Major Championship, especially being the Masters, was a dream come true.

I had two older brothers, so I was always competing with them. The guys I grew up with on the golf course, when I was 13, they were 15 or 16, and I was always trying to beat them.

I spent hours as a kid on the putting green of the local golf course imagining I was sinking a putt to win the Masters.

The Masters is one of golf's greatest traditions and Augusta is one of the best courses in the world. They are synonymous. It's an event that every golfer, and golf fan, looks forward to.

The only other time I can recall my dad getting upset at me was when I missed a hockey practice. My parents were away, so my buddy and I decided to skip it. I never told my dad about it, but he found out from the coach.

You just don't have the time to worry about what others are doing. You just want to take care of your own business. You are focused on that tee shot on the 10th tee and making it to the finish line. It's one of the most stressful moments in professional golf, but you have worked so hard to get to that point, that it really is fun.

Nobody in Europe will be abandoned. Nobody in Europe will be excluded. Europe only succeeds if we work together.

There are a lot of laughs in this movie, but it's not just about the laughs. It's really about the story, about a guy who finds his soul and realizes what's truly important.

It seemed ... such nonsense inventing differences when people heaven knows were different enough without that.

My aim is to play as many games as possible and to go out and be one of the 11 players again.

Success needs no explanation. Failure does not have one that matters.

Thats the whole problem with science. Youve got a bunch of empiricists trying to describe things of unimaginable wonder.

I loved theatre and did magic, too, but I was never the best at it - there was never a teacher saying, 'You're great, you have to make this your career!' I was good at science and math. I figured I'd go into science and become a dentist.

Well, when I was very young, maybe 12 years, I began to make investments.

The idea is that the object has a language unto itself.

It is by doubting that we come to investigate, and by investigating that we recognize the truth.

If heavy metal bands ruled the world wed be a lot better off.

The age of the Earth makes no difference with respect to Christ's atoning sacrifice for humanity's sin or to the nature and character of God, Earth's age has no bearing on any of the historic Christian doctrines. No mention of Earth's age appears in even the most detailed creedal statements.

America makes prodigious mistakes, America has colossal faults, but one thing cannot be denied: America is always on the move. She may be going to Hell, of course, but at least she isn't standing still.

People's imagination is the most effective tool in creating terror or dread.

The taste of defeat has a richness of experience all its own.

I mainly use Stratocasters. I like a lot of different kinds of guitars, but for what I do, it seems that a Stratocaster is the most versatile. I can pretty much get any sound out of it, and I use stock pickups.

To say, that Capt. Ingraham violated the rights of Turkey, is nonsense.

A journalist enjoys a privileged position. In exchange for not being able to participate in the rough-and-tumble issues of a community, we are given license to observe it all, based on the understanding that we'll tell everyone what happens fairly and squarely. That's harder than it sounds.

In New Orleans, bounce music was prevalent. That was all they wanted to hear. It was new and trendy, and it was hot, and it was taking off. Artists were coming out of everywhere. They did some great songs, some really catchy, fun songs. That was just the feel of New Orleans music.

We're under some gross misconception that we're a good species, going somewhere important, and that at the last minute we'll correct our errors and God will smile on us. It's delusion.
