Thoughts From a Foolish Golf Course Superintendent

A young Superintendent hopes to share bounty with the rich; a wise one hopes to share lowliness with the oppressed.  (3/15/19)

One Superintendent talks a lot; another listens a lot. (3/14/19)

One Superintendent hides his anger behind a mask of laughter, and another vents  his bitterness to the world; I say it again, the world is grateful for a man who hides his anger, but his friends are filled with sorrow, and the world is vexed by a man who shares his bitterness, but only his mother sheds a sorrowful tear. (3/13/19)

One Superintendent is not as good as he thinks he is; another is not as good as he thinks he should be. (3/12/19)

A young Superintendent shares everything he knows; a wise one keeps some secrets. (3/11/19)

One Superintendent talks a lot; another listens a lot. (3/10/19)

Pride is a door-closer; humility is a door-opener. (3/9/19)

Rolling greens is like lathering frosting on cake; putting on rolled greens is like eating thick frosting from a cake. (3/8/19)

One Superintendent receives praise from the members, but the earth groans in his activities; another receives praise from nature, but the people treat him like a midnight shadow. (3/7/19)

One Superintendent believes in his hopes; another hopes in his beliefs. (3/6/19)
