“A plain sock by itself is terribly boring, but it could score points by having a clever stitch pattern, or maybe by being made out of a very beautiful yarn that's an enchantment to work with. (Sadly, it is still infuriatingly true that being beautiful without being clever is almost worth more points than being clever without being beautiful, but such are the rules of life and knitting-they are cruel, but there anyway).” MadeStillsBeautifulPatternsBoringCleverScoreSockVery BeautifulEnchantmentKnittingBeing BeautifulStitchesRules Of LifeYarn Book:All Wound Up: The Yarn Harlot Writes for a Spin Source: All Wound Up: The Yarn Harlot Writes for a Spin
“From the beginning it was drilled into me that a golf course was a place where character fully reveals itself -- both its strengths and its flaws. As a result, I learned early not only to fix my ball marks but also to congratulate an opponent on a good shot, avoid walking ahead of a player preparing to shoot, remain perfectly still when someone else was playing, and a score of other small courtesies that revealed, in my father's mind, one's abiding respect for the game.” MindStillsCharacterCoursesFatherGamesResultsPlayerWalkingShotsBallsMarkGolfOpponentsScoreFlawsPreparingCourtesyAbidingGolf Course Author:Arnold Palmer
“If we assiduously cultivate our powers of exaggeration, perhaps we, too, shall obtain the Paradise of Liars. And there Raphael shall paint for us scores and scores of his manifestly impossible pictures... and Shakespeare will lie to us of fabulous islands far past 'the still-vex'd Bermoothes,' and bring us fresh tales from the coast of Bohemia. For no one will speak the truth there, and we shall all be perfectly happy.” IfsStillsPastLyingSpeakImpossiblePaintTalesIslandsParadiseScoreLiarsCoastFabulousExaggerationSpeak The TruthRaphaelVexBohemia Author:James Branch Cabell
