I shall not change my course because those who assume to be better than I desire it.

Mastery is great, but even that is not enough. You have to be able to change course without a bead of sweat, or remorse.

If a course needs to be in great condition to be played effectively, then the design strategy is flawed.

I want good and different parts, different from what I've done.

Changing course is never easy.

My own style is one of not much effort.

Practice is the best of all instructors.

Today, charting your own course isn't just more necessary than ever before. It's also much easier - and much more fun.

Style is whatever you want to do, if you can do it with confidence.

If you start your own thing, you can learn a lot really fast from doing things wrong.
