You talking to me or eating a brick?  Either way, you're gonna lose your teeth.

Only opened his mouth to change feet.

You lose two things as you age.   One's your memory and I forget the other one.

I can diet but you're short.

Gotta think lucky to be lucky.

What doesn't kill you makes you stronger.

The harder I work, the luckier I get.
Don't listen to the money men - they know the price of everything and the value of nothing

Live in a cohousing community with small farm for our own use.  Dairy cows (rearing their own calves for beef), pigs, sheep for meat and fleece, ducks and hens for eggs, veg and fruit growing

Gary Player was fond of the second - he may have coined it along with:


As we all know... golf is a puzzle without an answer.
Gary Player

Golf is a puzzle without an answer. I've played the game for 40 years and I still haven't the slightest idea how to play.
Gary Player

I've traveled more than any human being who's ever lived.
Gary Player

If there's a golf course in heaven, I hope it's like Augusta National. I just don't want an early tee time.
Gary Player

The harder you work, the luckier you get.
Gary Player

We create success or failure on the course primarily by our thoughts.
Gary Player

You must work very hard to become a natural golfer.
Gary Player
