Let us strive for personal, practical integrity in every endeavor, regardless of how mundane or inconsequential it may seem.
Joseph B. Wirthlin
Image
Yoga does not remove us from the reality or responsibilities of everyday life but rather places our feet firmly and resolutely in the practical ground of experience. We don't transcend our lives we return to the life we left behind in the hopes of something better.
Donna Farhi
Image
To live the practical aspect of life as part of our schooling is formidable, but to adopt living it as our ultimate goal is absurd.
Samael Aun Weor
Image
Even the utmost good-will and harmony and practical kindness are not sufficient for Friendship, for Friends do not live in harmony merely, as some say, but in melody. We do not wish for Friends to feed and clothe our bodies-neighbors are kind enough for that-but to do the like office to our spirits.
Henry David Thoreau
Image
I'd rather have cancer than a dishonest heart. Which isn't being pious. Just practical. Cancer may cool you, but the other's sure to.
Truman Capote
Image
I am perplexed at the stupidity of the ordinary religious being. In the most practical of all matters he will talk and speculate and try to feel, but he will not set himself to do.
George MacDonald
Image
Science is knowledge certain and evident in itself, or by the principles from which it is deducted, or with which it is certainly connected. It is subjective, as existing in the mind objective, as embodied in truths speculative, as leading to do something, as in practical science.
William Fleming
Image
I don't have an office. I sit in a cubicle with everybody else. That's partly so no one can ask for an office, which in a fast-growing company isn't practical. But it's also so I can keep my finger on the pulse of how people are feeling.
Kevin P. Ryan

The ultimate test of practical leadership is the realization of intended, real change that meets people's enduring needs.
James MacGregor Burns
Image
Let us be practical and ask the question: How do we love our enemies?
Martin Luther King, Jr.
Image
The important part of Marxism was its demand for active, constant, practical, class-war
Francis Parker Yockey
Image
Another glorious Sierra day in which one seems to be dissolved and absorbed and sent pulsing onward we know not where. Life seems neither long nor short, and we take no more heed to save time or make haste than do the trees and stars. This is true freedom, a good practical sort of immortality.
John Muir
Image
What possibilities exist here? What is presenting itself to me IN THIS MOMENT that I can use? In a very real sense, it's meditation in motion, the practical application of an esoteric practice. And it relies on the acceptance of serendipity. Serendipity, the effect of accidentally discovering something fortunate
Tom Bergeron

The world is waiting for a practical demonstration of the Gospel of the grace of God!
Leonard Ravenhill
Image
Practical life teaches us that people may differ and that both may be wrong: it also teaches us that people may differ and both be right. Anchor yourself fast in the latter faith, or the former will sweep your heart away.
Augustus William Hare
Image
Our whole practical government is grounded in mob psychology and the Boobus Americanus will follow any command that promises to make him safer.
H. L. Mencken
Image
It is possible to indulge too great contempt for mere success, which is frequently attended with all the practical advantages of merit itself, and with several advantages that merit alone can never command.
William Benton Clulow
Image
The Matisse seemed to respond to the decreasing light by increasing its own wattage. Every object in the room was drained of color, but the Matisse stood firm in the de-escalating illumination, its beauty turning functionality inside out, making itself a more practical and useful presence than anything else in sight.
Steve Martin
Image
Our prayer must not be self-centered. It must arise not only because we feel our own need as a burden we must lay upon God, but also because we are so bound up in love for our fellow men that we feel their need as acutely as our own. To make intercession for men is the most powerful and practical way in which we can express our love for them.
John Calvin
Image
I’ll admit that my garden now grows hope in lavish profusion, leaving little room for anything else. I suppose it has squeezed out more practical plants like caution and common sense. Still, though, hope does not flourish in every garden, and I feel thankful it has taken root in mine.
Sharon Kay Penman
Image
But what was possible or practical had been replaced by a far baser impulse. Hope.
Ted Dekker
Image
Useful knowledge, practical kindness, and beneficent laws -- these are not the Gospel but, like philosophy, they are, or may be, its handmaids. They may make its task smooth and grateful they may associate themselves with its victories, or they may prepare its way.
Henry Parry Liddon
Image
When you # travel , you experience, in a very practical way, the act of # rebirth .
Paulo Coelho
Image
You have to accustom yourself to practical study at home, you have to devote time to studies, to the history of chess, the development of chess theory, of chess culture.
