Quotes by James Dodson (?)

“PERFECTION, OF COURSE, is a cruel god. It requires the kind of absolute devotion and daily sacrifice that is the sworn enemy of personal emotion and intimacy with others, even—and maybe especially—one’s loyal ladywife.”
― James Dodson, Ben Hogan: An American Life

“Golf camaraderie,” wrote my friend John Updike in his lovely meditation on the subject in Golf Dreams, “like that of astronauts and Antarctic explorers, is based on a common experience of transcendence; fat or thin, scratch or duffer, we have been somewhere together where nongolfers never go.”
― James Dodson, The Range Bucket List: The Golf Adventure of a Lifetime
