Quotations regarding 'Practice'

Choose a letter: 
I still need practice in enjoying the fruits of success.
Neil Diamond, American Musician (1941-  )
Those who have virtue always in their mouths, and neglect it in practice, are like a harp, which emits a sound pleasing to others, while itself is insensible of the music.
Diogenes, Greek Philosopher
The practice of politics in the East may be defined by one word: dissimulation.
Benjamin Disraeli, British Statesman (1804-1881)
Low-income taxpayers deserve the same rights as everyone else. It was wrong of the IRS to target low-income taxpayers, and I am please by the decision to correct this unfair practice.
Christopher Dodd, American Politician (1944-  )
I didn't have a clue where I was going on my first lap of practice.
Joey Dunlop, Irish Celebrity (1952-2000)
Americans spend much of their adult lives paying taxes in various forms. We should end this practice of paying a tax that is triggered only by debt.
Jennifer Dunn, American Politician (1941-  )
Marriage as an institution developed from rape as a practice. Rape, originally defined as abduction, became marriage by capture. Marriage meant the taking was to extend in time, to be not only use of but possession of, or ownership.
Andrea Dworkin, American Critic (1946-2005)
Keep a journal, and learn how to see how you as an individuals sees information so you can learn your own sign language. Meditate and practice psychic self defense and surrounding yourself with prayer.
John Edward, American Entertainer (1969-  )
In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice. But, in practice, there is.
Manfred Eigen, German Scientist (1927-  )
America traditionally represents the greatest possibility of someone's going from nothing to something. Why? In theory, if not practice, the government stays out of the way and lets individuals take risks and reap rewards or accept the consequences of failure. We call this capitalism - or, at least, we used to.
Larry Elder, American Journalist (1952-  )
I'm a practicing Christian - and I'm going to keep practicing till I get it right - but I don't feel everyone has to practice the same religion that I do. You have a right to worship who you choose and how you choose to.
Jane Elliot, American Actress (1947-  )
It worries me a little bit the reach and power of TV. More people saw me in 'The Practice' than will ever see me in all the stage plays I ever do. Which is sort of humbling. Or troubling. Or both.
Michael Emerson, American Actor (1954-  )
Practice yourself, for heaven's sake in little things, and then proceed to greater.
Epictetus, Greek Philosopher
Getting a chance to practice six months against my own teammates, who I consider the best soccer players in the world, there's no way I couldn't improve.
Lorrie Fair, American Athlete (1978-  )
The simplicity and uniformity of rural occupations, and their incessant practice, preclude any anxieties and agitations of hope and fear, to which employments of a more precarious and casual nature are subject.
William Falconer, Scottish Poet
Actually, most things I say in public lead more or less directly to my own compositional practice, so I should be careful about generalizing lest they come back to haunt me.
Brian Ferneyhough, British Composer (1943-  )
I don't like to practice ahead of time what I'm going to say.
Geraldine Ferraro, American Politician (1935-2011)
Soon after I returned to private practice, former Supreme Court Chief Justice Warren Burger called me one day.
Fred F. Fielding, American Lawyer (1939-  )
The practice of medicine is a thinker's art the practice of surgery a plumber's.
Martin H. Fischer, -
Diagnosis is not the end, but the beginning of practice.
Martin H. Fischer, -
