John Updike Zitate

Golf's ultimate moral instruction directs us to find within ourselves a pivotal center of enjoyment: relax into a rhythm that fits the hills and swales, and play the shot at hand - not the last one, or the next one, but the one at your feet, in the poison ivy, where you put it.

Die ultimative moralische Instruktion von Golf weist uns an, ein zentrales Vergnügungszentrum in uns zu finden: Entspannen Sie sich in einem Rhythmus, der zu den Hügeln und Abhängen passt, und spielen Sie den Schuss, den Sie spielen - nicht den letzten oder den nächsten, sondern den Ihnen zu Füßen in den Giftefeu, wo du ihn hingelegt hast.

I've trained myself to find time to exercise relaxation of the body. I have these programs - I just listen to the instructions, and they're simple. Sometimes you just hold your hand tight and keep your breath - you hold it, hold it, feel all the tension, and then relax.
