Don Quixote would understand golf. It is the impossible dream.Jim Murray
Joe represented a lot of what was good and decent about the sport. You don't see that today. He was a craftsman. It really is too bad. You don't see those ethics anymore. Without Joe DiMaggio, perhaps they are dead forever.

For what Ben Hogan meant, it's the old story. For those who know golf, no explanation is necessary. For those who don't, no explanation is possible.

I never saw any of man's baser acts of inhumanity to man. I never saw screaming 'witches' burned at the stake, Christians tossed to starving lions, maidens pushed over the edge of active volcanoes. I never even saw a man going to the electric chair. But until I do, watching Ben Hogan walk up to a five-foot putt is my idea of cruel and inhuman punishment, only a Hitler would enjoy. You feel like saying 'Go home to your wife and kiddies and don't look upon this terrible thing'
