“Elderly gentlemen, gentle in all respects, kind to animals, beloved by children, and fond of music, are found in lonely corners of the downs, hacking at sandpits or tussocks of grass, and muttering in a blind, ungovernable fury elaborate maledictions which could not be extracted from them by robbery or murder. Men who would face torture without a word become blasphemous at the short fourteenth. It is clear that the game of golf may well be included in that category of intolerable provocations which may legally excuse or mitigate behavior not otherwise excusable.” MenWellsKindMayChildrenFacesFoundGamesAnimalClearBehaviorLonelyMurderBlindGolfExcuseCornersGentleGrassBelovedGentlemanTortureCategoriesElderlyFuryHackingRobberyProvocationMutteringMalediction Author:A.

“I think he is condemned by himself to loneliness. God is One: he was, he is, he will be always One. One is so lonely. Maybe that is why he created human beings--to feel less lonely. But as human beings betray his creation, he may become even lonelier.” ThinkingFeelsHumansMayGodHuman BeingsLonelinessCreationLonelyBetraySo Lonely Author:Elie Wiesel
