Failure Success

"[Watson quoted himself to the writers, telling them what he writes in notes of bereavement to others.] May the memories of the one who has passed on fill the void that they left, ... There's another poem, by St. Augustine, that says, 'Don't cry for me but remember the most important things of my life and what I represented in my life and make that your memory of me, not my death.' I think that's important. We have grief. I'm sure I'll cry. I'll cry a lot before it's over."

"[Watson laughed, or tried to, with his eyes still red. It was much the same way Edwards dealt with his fatal illness when he first learned about it in a visit to the Mayo Clinic.] I was on the phone with Marsha, who said the doctor had diagnosed him with ALS, ... I said, 'Gosh, my fears are realized.' When Bruce got on the phone, he said, 'Well, I just made a quad.' You guys know what that means. That's how he just kind of brushed it off. I said, 'Yeah, but we're going to get back to even par.' Whenever somebody came up to put their arm around him and say they were sorry, Bruce would say, 'Don't be sorry, I can deal with it,' and then put them off with some sort of joke about the Eagles or how bad the Cowboys were."

"[Woods sees himself as an icon, one for the ages. That was evident in the stone-cold way that he went about winning his first U.S. Open and third major title, with the most dominating four-round performance in the history of major-championship golf. His winning margin was 15 strokes -- two better than the record for a major set by Old Tom Morris at the 1862 British Open against a field of about a dozen -- and his manner of winning was intimidating. Woods hit longer, straighter drives than anyone else. He flew iron shots that held on Pebble's small, firm greens. He never three-putted. This made even the most accomplished players look uncomfortable and unworthy.] Tiger has raised the bar, ... and it seems that he's the only guy who can jump over that bar."

"Your headlights and all the other bulbs in your vehicle see a very consistent voltage. You don't get the voltage spikes that tend to burn out bulbs and shorten their lives."
