Wenn die Erinnerungen an Bagdad-Frauen nur von denen auf der Straße zu sehen wären, dann wären sie von ledrigen, runzligen Gesichtern, zu früh alt geworden, Gestalten, die jegliche Form verloren haben, und von Mühe gekrümmten und mit Henna befleckten Händen.

That was the biggest thrill, going over to these guy's houses and having them want me to practice with them and they would show me a lot of stuff, which was really advanced stuff to me at my age.

Arnold Palmer has what I call an 'Eisenhower smile'. Those two men, they'd smile and their whole faces would look so pleasant; it was like they were smiling all over.

I figured the people who liked the sort of thing I was doing would come see it. If it was only 200 then that was alright and if it was 2000 then that is alright as well. I wasn't really interested in the big numbers; I was just interested in some numbers.
