THE BACK NINE
10. Carl Spackler (Bill Murray) - “So I tell 'em I'm a pro jock, and who do you think they give me? The Dalai Lama himself. The 12th son of the Lama. The flowing robes, the grace, bald... striking. So, I'm on the first tee with him. I give him the driver. He hauls off and whacks one—big hitter, the Lama—long, into a 10,000-foot crevasse right at the base of this glacier. Do you know what the Lama says? Gunga galunga... gunga, gunga-galunga. So we finish the 18th and he's gonna stiff me. And I say, 'Hey, Lama, hey, how about a little something, you know, for the effort, you know?' And he says, 'Oh, uh, there won't be any money, but when you die, on your deathbed, you will receive total consciousness.' So I got that goin' for me, which is nice.”
11. Ty Webb (Chevy Chase) - "I don't play golf, for money, against people."
12. Carl Spackler - “To kill, you must know your enemy, and in this case my enemy is a varmint. And a varmint will never quit—ever. They're like the Viet Cong—Varmint Cong."
13. Al Czervik (Rodney Dangerfield) - “Hey, you scratched my anchor!”
14. Carl Spackler - “This is a hybrid. This is a cross, ah, of Bluegrass, Kentucky Bluegrass, Featherbed Bent, and Northern California Sensemilia. The amazing stuff about this is, that you can play 36 holes on it in the afternoon, take it home and just get stoned to the bejeezus belt that night on this stuff.”
15. Ty Webb - "We have pond in the back, but we have a pool—and a pond.... pond be good for you. Natural spring."
16. Judge Smails (Ted Knight) - “I've sentenced boys younger than you to the gas chamber. Didn't want to do it. I felt I owed it to them."
17. Ty Webb: Don't be obsessed with your desires Danny. The Zen philosopher Basha once wrote, 'A flute with no holes, is not a flute. A donut with no hole, is a Danish.' He was a funny guy."
18. Carl Spackler - “Wait up, girls; I got a salami I gotta hide still.

"I was born to rub you, I was born to lick your face,
I was born to love you, but you were born to love me first....."
I wish the brilliance of Chevy's tequila-shooting scene was somehow able to be captured by words. It would definitely be on here if that was possible.
This list is a travesty. How could you leave out. "This steak still has marks from where the jockey was whipping it."
And what about Chevy's lines about the Dalai Lama?
Did you actually watch the movie?
Sorry, but Caddyshack falls short of Groundhog Day as THE greatest movie ever.
Judge Smails- Ty! Put that steering wheel back on the other side where it belongs!
Bryan Doyal Murray: "Pick up that blood!"
"Well, the world needs ditch-diggers, too."

Ahoi, polloi. Where did you come from, a scotch ad?
