I have learned two important lessons from my association with the Marine Corps: always be on time and always be ready to do what is required when you get there.
The image of a community is fundamentally important to its economic well-being. If all places look alike there's no reason to go anywhere.
Agriculture is the new golf
All Americans need a sense of place. That's what makes our physical surroundings worth caring about.
If you have a boat and a happy marriage you don't need another thing.
Golf courses sell real estate and that's why they're built.
Honesty is the most single most important factor having a direct bearing on the final success of an individual corporation or product.
Johnny once described our relationship by saying we were as close as two people could be without being married.
There was a time... when people didn't go out of their house on Tuesday night at eight o'clock because Milton Berle was on.
The majority of people who buy homes in golf course communities don't play golf. Golf is way down at the bottom in terms of total numbers and growth.
God invented whiskey to keep the Irish from ruling the world.
It's really kind of hard to be a suburb of nothing. If you don't have a downtown you really don't have anything. It's hard to build a community around parking lots and subdivisions.
You can grow without destroying the things that you love.
There is no planning. On the night it is really great it's euphoria and if it is not so great there is always tomorrow night. That was his attitude.
