"Why are we building golf courses? Because we enjoy being outside, bringing man and nature together." ― Jack Nicklaus Topic(s): Nature More From Jack Nicklaus "This is a game. That’s all it is. It’s not a war." "Success depends almost entirely on how effectively you learn to manage the game’s two ultimate adversaries: the course and yourself." "A Nicklaus Design golf course is done by the guys in my company that I work with, that have been trained in my vision, and they do what they think I might do. They might come in the office and ask me questions and I’d certainly answer their questions, but I’m not involved in the site visits or anything else." More In Nature "To me, the world’s rather beautiful if you look at it. Especially nature."― David Hockney "I perhaps owe having become a painter to flowers."― Claude Monet "A hatred of failure has always been part of my nature."― Paul Getty
