More quotes by Arnold Palmer
There's some good news, too, and the good news is that the players [finally] have become more aware of the fact that we [in golf] need sponsors, and we need the good will that is created by the players being, let's say, cooperative with the sponsors - meaning friendly.
Arnold Palmer
I was born in 1929, that was the depression, so the golf course was manned by my father and two guys, they worked for my dad and they took me with them everywhere they went. And it was fun.
Arnold Palmer
Sam Snead will fly anywhere in my plane with me. Sam's not as worried about the danger as he is about saving money.
Arnold Palmer
I received many years of good advice from my father - how to live, how to play, how to be a gentleman.
Arnold Palmer
I have won the Australian, I won the British, all PGA championships, but I haven't won the PGA championship.
Arnold Palmer
Players need to remember they didn't make golf. Golf made them.
Arnold Palmer
I remember ones I lost [shot]. I remember the ones I won, but I remember the ones I lost, something that I will never forget. Did it ruin me or hurt my career? It taught me about life, how to take the bad with the good.
Arnold Palmer
Swing your swing. I know, I did.
Arnold Palmer
Golf never ceases to be a challenge, even when it really is just you and the ball out there and nobody else.
Arnold Palmer
Trouble is bad to get into but fun to get out of. If you're in trouble, eighty percent of the time there's a way out. If you can see the ball, you can probably hit it and if you can hit it, you can move it and if you can move it, you might be able to knock it in the hole. At least it's fun to try.
Arnold Palmer
I would never felt good if I hadn't experienced losing, because losing is part of your life. And it something that if I could teach people to understand that I think it could help them a lot.
Arnold Palmer
I would not have been able to accomplish a lot of what I did professionally had I not learned to fly myself and owned an airplane. For example, I was able to fly to an exhibition for the day and be back home in time for dinner. I never would have been able to do that flying commercially.
Arnold Palmer
I didn't get playing professional golf until I was 25 years old. And I always said that if I could make it work, I would play as long as I could walk.
Arnold Palmer
I suppose I could think of a lot of things to say about the fact that I still play. But I don't really need to. I can tell you this, that I enjoy it. I still enjoy it. I like to get out in the air and I like to walk and I like to do the things that are involved in playing golf.
Arnold Palmer
Putting is like wisdom - partly a natural gift and partly the accumulation of experience.
Arnold Palmer
I was national amateur champion. I was 24 years old. My father was there, and I couldn't wait to see him, and my mother. I went up and was waiting for all the accolades, and my mom was teary and happy and my dad looked at me and said, Well, boy, you did good, and that was it.
Arnold Palmer
The most rewarding things you do in life are often the ones that look like they cannot be done.
Arnold Palmer
I never felt that I didn't have a chance to win.
Arnold Palmer
If Tiger Woods slamming his club into the ground is the biggest worry wehave, our sport isinprettygood shape.
Arnold Palmer
When I was in college, I thought about becoming an attorney. But I wasn't smart enough I hate being cooped up indoors and I'm too nice a guy.
