Life is like a Chinese burn.

I push myself to be the best I can be. I don't worry about what other people are doing, and I don't think about things I can't control.

You just have to try and keep on grinding and hope that things will turn around eventually.

There are no shortcuts to success.

On the first tee I kept telling myself, "Trust yourself, you can do it."

I stay patient. I don't go out there and try to set a course record. That's probably one of my strengths and one reason I've been able to win major championships.

A lot of people think I am cold and have no feelings. But I do. I just try very hard to focus and not let my emotions take over on the golf course.

To play well you have to have good balance in your life. Tiger has found that. If you play golf long enough you'll learn that life is more than golf.

I still get butterflies on the first tee. I still get sweaty hands, and my heart pumps a lot going down the 18th. But I know what winning is all about now, and that's a feeling that I like.

When I first came on tour, I was playing for money. Now I'm playing to win golf tournaments and the money is more than I ever dreamed I could make.

I love to crunch numbers. I look at how many fairways I hit, how many greens I hit. I plan my way around the golf course.

The most powerful force on earth is residing in your heart

It is no ipso facto escape from dogma to assert (knowingly or not) non-dogmatism dogmatically.It is no ipso facto escape from credulity to believe in one's own scepticism.

From our primary schools to secondary schools, to tertiary institutions, there must be a mass campaign to educate our people in the value of labour.

When your own life is threatened, your sense of empathy is blunted by a terrible, selfish hunger for survival.

I lay there knowing something eerie ties us to the world of animals. Sometimes the animals pull you backward into it. You share hunger and fear with them like salt in blood.

Without music I should wish to die.

In America, Qualification is simply an attitude. I've adopted it. So, yes. I am qualified.

It's hard for a person to try to keep his stuff together being nominated for something and then performing onstage.

Even today, if my title hadn't been given back to me and I was in such poverty where I had to go and find a job, I would have done that.

He who comes to a conclusion when the other side is unheard, may have been just in his conclusion, but yet has not been just in his conduct.
