en The reason it is called golf is that all the other four-letter words were already taken

en According to locker room lore, the name golf arose by default - all the other four-letter words had already been taken

en Today's comics use four-letter words as a shortcut to thinking. They're shooting for that big laugh and it becomes a panic thing, using four-letter words to shock people.
  Red Skelton

en We fine broadcasters for using four-letter words, we say that's offensive. So is it offensive to call for the assassination of a world leader?
  Matt Lauer

en And I can remember that extraordinary moment when you first see the words, instead of having to make them out letter by letter.

en When you look at the game, it's not structured for words. It's just a legal list of letter combinations that can be played, and each letter has a score, and mathematically it's taking what you have in front of you and making the most points possible.

en I was never his partner on the course. You know, I was playing golf for a different reason. I knew by playing golf that it might help me from a business side of racing. That was my whole purpose of being on the course. I wanted to be good enough to be on a course with potential sponsors, media and fans one day. It's really why I first started to play. I'm sure Tiger had a different reason to be out there then I did... Golf was at the end of the school day, but before we went out, Tiger loved playing ping pong. Yeah, he beat me at that, too.

en X in our alphabet being a needless letter has an added invincibility to the attacks of the spelling reformers, and like them, will doubtless last as long as the language. X is the sacred symbol of ten dollars, and in such words as Xmas, Xn, etc., stands for Christ, not, as is popular supposed, because it represents a cross, but because the corresponding letter in the Greek alphabet is the initial of his name
--_Xristos_. If it represented a cross it would stand for St. Andrew, who "testified" upon one of that shape. In the algebra of psychology x stands for Woman's mind. Words beginning with X are Grecian and will not be defined in this standard English dictionary.
  Ambrose Bierce

en I was on the opposite side of the golf course, and there's nobody out there watching us play golf. You knew where she was the whole time. It was almost like a Tiger-type following. You know where she was on the golf course. That says a lot. I don't think that wears off until that goes away for some reason. I just don't see that happening any time soon.
