Never give a golfer an ultimatum unless you're prepared to lose.
Relationships are negotiated and if you deal with ultimatums and authority all the time, then you're not going to get anywhere.
Hope for the best, plan for the worst.
Never accept ultimatums, conventional wisdom, or absolutes.
I was happy when I read the script [The Bourne Ultimatum ] - the first version they sent me - to see that before, there's some humanity too.
