You can either practice being right or practice being kind.
Anne Lamott
Image
A lot of people do their practice. They meditate on compassion. Then they yell at people afterwards. That is not quite working. One of the things I try to emphasize is contemplative meditation - bringing your thought and intention into meditation.
Sakyong Mipham
Image
It's not true that you should first think up an idea for a better world and only then put it into practice, but, rather, through the fact of your existence in the world, you create the idea or manifest it - create it, as it were, from the material of the world, articulate it in the language of the world.
Vaclav Havel
Image
It takes practice to shave the skin off the light.
Anne Carson
Image
You have not really learned a commandment until you have obeyed it. The Church suffers today from Christians who know volumes more than they practice.
Vance Havner
Image
Resignation is, to some extent, spoiled for me by the fact that it is so entirely conformable to the laws of common-sense. I should like just a little more of the supernatural in the practice of my favorite virtue.
Sophie Swetchine
Image
I practice self-love, give love, and surround myself with people who bring out the best in me.
Anna Eshoo
Image
What my work is, is my approach to it. It's the practice. And my work is about the effort that I make to get there. And I think if there's anything artistic, it's in that middle space.
Anna Deavere Smith
Image
The thing that's most important in getting you in the best mindest is just being prepared - having a great practice, and knowing that no matter what knowing you're going to go in with confidence. You need to have that confidence to power through.
Venus Williams
Image
I'm not the type of player to sit home and practice scales and work on runs.
Dave Navarro
Image
A person has to be strong in life. A person must practice strength, even if they don't feel it.
Ann Rinaldi
Image
Don’t worry about me handling the pain, I say. I’ve had a lot of practice.
Veronica Roth
Image
I think that business practices would improve immeasurably if they were guided by feminine pinciples, qualities like love, care, and intuition.
Anita Roddick
Image
When you practice Transcendental Meditation you are given a key to the deepest level of life.
David Lynch
Image
Since 1985, I have written about contemporary Jewish practice and the Jewish community.
Anita Diament
Image
Rescuing women from their burden of unwarranted guilt is going to require educational practices and socializing agents even more effective than the ones that have been relentlessly loading female humans with responsibility for other people's behavior from their earliest childhood.
Germaine Greer
Image
There is no movement in the golf swing so difficult that it cannot be made even more difficult by careful study and diligent practice.
Tom Mulligan
Image
If you've ever tried meditation and didn't stay with it, I recommend you try it again. Some time has passed. In the interim, you may have developed the discipline of mind or the patience you were short on before. Let these qualities aid your practice. (173)
Victoria Moran
Image
My judges preach against free love openly, practice it secretly.
Victoria Woodhull
Image
It is extremely unfortunate that an editor's own life and practice should be notoriously at variance with his written principles.
Victoria Woodhull
Image
Anarchy loves theatre. That's the whole point. People forget that. You have to laugh at the devil, not fight him. They'll always have more guns, they'll always have more bombs that go off with a bigger bang. No matter how revolting you become they'll always be willing to be more revolting to you. They've had so much more practice.
Melvin Burgess
Image
Where cultural representations do not reach out beyond themselves, there is the danger that they will function as the surrogates for activism, that they will constitute both the beginning and the end of political practice.
Angela Davis
Image
Death itself is a natural occurrence, it is unavoidable, and the Stoics thought that part of philosophical practice is to get comfortable with the unavoidable, learning to face it with courage.
Massimo Pigliucci
Image
My paternal grandmother would not light a fire on the Sabbath and piled all Sunday's washing-up in a bucket, to be dealt with on Monday morning, because the Sabbath was a day of rest--a practice that made my paternal grandfather, the village atheist, as mad as fire. Nevertheless, he willed five quid to the minister, just to be on the safe side.
