But in the case of Tiger Woods and Steve Williams, they just might be words to live by.
Golf's dynamic duo just can't seem to stay out of the headlines. And this week it continues to be for all the wrong reasons.
Tiger Woods, everybody's All-American, is still a shell of his former self. And 'Stevie' had the unblinking CBS eye all to himself on Sunday.
While Tiger continues to make headlines for not doing much of anything on the golf course, Williams is making his own headlines for what he's doing on the golf course.
Following the final round of the Bridgestone Invitational on Sunday, David Feherty grabbed Williams following Adam Scott's victory. Williams has been caddying for Scott while Tiger was getting his game back together.
Feherty asked Williams about Williams, and Williams talked about Williams. And now from Provincetown to the Presidio, Williams is being vilified. Give me a break.
Never one to miss an opportunity to grab a little negative press, Williams has always been viewed as a bit of a hot head. Anybody that dared to tread on Tiger Woods path was greeted with a dose of bad behavior by Woods faithful caddy companion.
Pro golfers are notorious for kissing each others rear ends. They have as much of an us against them mentality as any of their professional peers. Sunday David Feherty led Steve Williams around by the nose, asking the caddy about the caddy. And caught up in the heat of the moment, 'Stevie', forgot to talk about what Adam Scott did.
In this case the media tossed the seal a fish, and the seal ate the fish. Plain, simple, end of story.
Since Tiger Woods car wreck last Thanksgiving, it's been one train wreck after another. Have you noticed that every time Tiger Woods has been in the news it's all been bad news?
From car wreck, to a wrecked marriage, to his accidental golf game, Tiger could use a big week this week at the PGA Championship.
Time for Tiger and Stevie to show up, keep up, and shut up.
