Gary Potter: Happy, the ball itself has its own energy, or life-force if you will. Its natural environment is in the hole. So why don’t you send him home? His bags are packed, he’s got his airplane tickets, bring him to the airport.

Gary Potter: A lot of pressure. You got to rise above it. You got to harness in the good energy, block out the bad. Harness. Energy. Block. Bad. Feel the flow, Happy. Feel it. It's circular. It's like a carousel. You pay the quarter, you get on the horse, it goes up and down, and around. It's circular. Circle, with the music, the flow. All good things.
