Moeisms 
Some of the wit and wisdom of Moe Norman, 1929-2004. Considered by many, including fellow professionals, as the best ball striker of all time.
"I only see what I want to see. Winners see winning, Losers see losing. You are what you think you are."
"When I play, I don't look at what I did wrong.. I look at what I did right"
"The game should not lead you..... you must lead the game."
"You learn by making it feel good to yourself."
"You have to love every shot because they all teach you."
"What's wrong with hitting the ball straight? Why hook it out of bounds or slice it into the rough? Hit the ball straight. There's no thorn bushes up your butt [in the fairway]."
"Why am I the greatest ball-striker? Because I have the least moving parts. I keep it simple"
"Practice something that makes you better. Don't do something that ingrains habits that make you worse. But that's what 99 percent of people do."
"Be technique oriented, not distance oriented."
"Stay within yourself. I never swing 100 percent. Most of the time, it's 80 percent. Sure, you can swing 100 percent and the ball will go further, but it's work. Golf isn't a game of violence. Just bump it - about 280 [yards]."
"Believing in your mental image will make you a master"
"Everyone asks themselves [after a round] what did I do wrong? I say, What did I do right? That's what I want to learn, what I did right."
"Top player's play automatic golf"
"Golf is not a turning action; it's a shifting action. You want to ride the line - create turbo power."
"The only person you have to beat is yourself"
"Why hit hooks and slices? You hurt your muscles with all that twisting. I've hit five million balls and never had a sore muscle. I can stand here all day."
"[Ben] Hogan was next after me [ball striker]. But I got mad at him once. When he said the only straight ball is an accident, I told him to come with me and you'll see a lot of accidents!"
"With a short backswing, you can't get off line. How can you not hit it straight when you do that?"
"When you get it [the swing], you won't believe your eyes and won't believe how easy it is."
"Golf isn't supposed to be work. It's to have fun. So have fun!"
"Be your own best friend. Have a good attitude. Don't let the game eat you - you eat the game. When you step up to the tee, be glad you're up. Don't be afraid."
"I never got mad at myself. Why? Because getting mad only makes your swing worse."
"When you get it [golf swing] you won't believe your eyes. And to get it, you need to get out of your own way."
"There are only three ways to get better at this game.. Practice, practice, practice."
"Every shot I hit I want to hit with no strain or no struggle, just poetry in motion."
"Get out of your own way"
"Throw Your Arm's Down the Fairway" - Moe describing how he hit his driver.
"Stabilize, Energize, Contain, and then Release...not Strike, Steer, Stare, and Stall."
"I'm gaining distance as I get older. I'd like to kill the guys who wrote that you lose distance as you get older."
"The way you think [about golf], determines the way you feel [about golf]"
"I've been an upper body player all of my life."
