Routine Quotes
-
The normal routine is always the same thing whether it's on a new movie or a new job - there's always a process of getting to know one another.

He looks comfortable over putts and to me, he doesn't take as long to putt as he does full shots. His routine is consistent.

They don't worry about the three-putt or the bad putt. They don't take that with them.

Emerging from the train, I found it was fully night, the air excited by foreboding and something else, something like the feel of a childhood snow day when time was emancipated from institutions, when the snow seemed like a technology for defeating time, or like defeated time itself falling from the sky, each glittering ice particle an instant gifted back from your routine.
