You don't have to go the gym - just walk 10,000 steps a day and you are activating your good genes. But do practise yoga.
Deepak Chopra
Image
In real life I'm not the character I play in my films. I'm reasonably competent, I work very hard, I'm disciplined, I lead a very middle class life. I work in the mornings, I have lunch, I practise my clarinet, I go to the movies, I eat out in restaurants or watch ball games on television or at the ball games.
Woody Allen
Image
I always practise penalties, but what people don't understand is that you can never recreate that pressure situation that you're under.
Alan Shearer
Image
You want to ensure people can do it right 99 percent of time. When we have to fire one of our surgical trainees, it is never because they dont have the physical skills but because they dont have the moral skills - to practise and admit failure.
Atul Gawande
Image
Truth often finds its way to the mind close muffled in robes of sleep, and then speaks with uncompromising directness of matters in regard to which we practise an unconscious self-deception during our waking moments.
Nathaniel Hawthorne
Image
To be free from bondage the wise person must practise discrimination between One-Self and the ego-self. By that alone you will become full of joy, recognising Self as Pure Being, Consciousness and Bliss.
Adi Shankara
Image
It is because artists do not practise, patrons do not patronize, crowds do not assemble to reverently worship the great work of Doing Nothing, that the world has lost its philosophy and even failed to invent a new religion.
Gilbert K. Chesterton
Image
In the build-up to a race I begin practising two days beforehand with two other team members. We have an hour and a half practise run together. Then on the next day we have another practise in two separate hour long sessions. On the actual day of competition we do a warm-up run in the car before the race.
Liz Halliday
Image
There are but three beings worthy of respect: the priest, the warrior and the poet. To know, to kill and to create. The rest of mankind may be taxed and drudged, they are born for the stable, that is to say, to practise what they call professions.
Charles Baudelaire
Image
People who practise a religion have been found to be happier, healthier and less stressed than those who don't.
Harold George Koenig
Image
It's a funny thing, the more I practice the luckier I get.
Arnold Palmer
Image
Meditation is focused attention and the more we practise focusing our brains the more connections we build up.
Philippa Perry

These are challenging and exciting times. No previous generation of Australians has ever had such an opportunity. No other country in the world has such an opportunity now. So long as we retain faith in ourselves, practise tolerance and reward initiative, we should be in no doubt about succeeding.
John Yu
Image
We look at each other for a moment and for once I feel awkward. It's not that I'm not into humility I've just never had to practise it.
Melina Marchetta
Image
Most men are more willing to indulge in easy vices than to practise laborious virtues.
Samuel Johnson
Image
Whenever we practise meditation, whether or not our meditation is clear, we are performing a virtuous mental action that is a cause of our future happiness and peace of mind.
Geshe Kelsang Gyatso
Image
We know that a large majority of the Australian society is extremely comfortable with a multicultural society, that we accept that living in a democracy means having a freedom to practise your religion within the limits of the law.
Tim Soutphommasane
Image
I like to practise. With every new piece, you make mistakes and you learn. So it's important to get on and have another go.
Wayne McGregor
Image
The painter who draws by practise and judgment of the eye without the use of reason is like the mirror which reproduces within itself all the objects which are set opposite to it without knowledge of the same.
Leonardo da Vinci
Image
South Africa was to evolve into the most pernicious example of the criminal practise of colonial and white minority domination.
Thabo Mbeki
Image
Let a man practise the profession he best knows. [Lat., Quam quisque novit artem, in hac se exerceat.]
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Image
You have to be down here in the States to realize just how tightly controlled the corporate media is and how much they practise Soviet-style censorship through creative omission.
Jello Biafra
Image
The only way to get back the confidence is to play and win matches. You can practise as much as you like, but you need confidence that comes from playing and winning matches.
Greg Rusedski
Image
I learned that sex was not a question of victory or defeat, of pleasure or profit: of a hand's manipulation and a physical response: I learned that in its purest pleasure it belongs to neither of those who practise it, in the same way as a child belongs to neither parent: it is a free spirit: it simply exists.
