  • Extremely large greens breed slovenly play. When any green ceases to command respect, it loses its value as a test of that rarest of all strokes, the shot home.

  • I always wanted to be a golfer, only I realised that if I'd played golf I would have been skint.

  • I've got two girls. I like to play golf. Apart from that there's not a lot goes on in my life. So I am boring, aren't I?

  • Poetry is a way for me to explore a tingly feeling, to let it play itself out, and also to map it. I feel like I'm making little star maps when I write poems.

  • Science fiction is never about the future, in the same way history is rarely about the past: they're both parable formats for examining or commenting on the present.

  • It is often wonderful how putting down on paper a clear statement of a case helps one to see, not perhaps the way out, but the way in.

  • You just can't let anything or anyone get in the way of who you are.

  • Definition, rationality, and structure are ways of seeing, but they become prisons when they blank out other ways of seeing.

  • I'm not an athiest. How can you not believe in something that doesn't exist? That's way too convoluted for me.

  • Just as modern motorways have no room for ox-carts or wandering pedestrians, so modern society has little place for lives and ways that are too eccentric.
