One of the things that I’m very excited about with New Shepard, which is our suborbital tourism vehicle, is using that to get a lot of practice. One of the equilibria that we’re at today with space launch is that we don’t get to practice enough.

Courage is the most important of all the virtues, because without courage you can’t practice any other virtue consistently. You can practice any virtue erratically, but nothing consistently without courage.

After the first day of practice, there’s not one guy who’s playing at 100 percent or who feels great. Sometimes, getting up in the morning and brushing your teeth is the hardest part of the day – it just hurts.

When you practice gratefulness, there is a sense of respect toward others.

However great a man’s natural talent may be, the act of writing cannot be learned all at once.

Don’t only practice your art, but force your way into its secrets; art deserves that, for it and knowledge can raise man to the Divine.

To master a new technology, you have to play with it.

I’m such a good lover because I practice a lot on my own.

Reading and writing, like everything else, improve with practice. And, of course, if there are no young readers and writers, there will shortly be no older ones. Literacy will be dead, and democracy – which many believe goes hand in hand with it – will be dead as well.

When you campaign and have to participate in so many debates just to the win the nomination of your party, you’ve had a lot of practice. You get to figure out as you go from one debate to another where you made your mistakes. By the time you get to the big debate you’re pretty polished.

Dancing in high heels is kind of tough. I learn the dances without the heels, and then we add them. We just practice, and I get used to it. My feet hurt really badly at the end of the shows, but it’s fun. While it’s happening it’s fun. I feel tall.

The practice of peace and reconciliation is one of the most vital and artistic of human actions.

I have to work really hard to get the record deal – I have to spend years at it to get good. I have to practice to be good at guitar.

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.

I fear not the man who has practiced 10,000 kicks once, but I fear the man who has practiced one kick 10,000 times.

The painter who draws merely by practice and by eye, without any reason, is like a mirror which copies every thing placed in front of it without being conscious of their existence.

Some of the stuff I do on the court is what most people think they can do.

Communism to me is one-third practice and two-thirds explanation.

If you play an instrument, it makes you a better singer. The more you play, the better you sing, the more you sing, the better you play.

If every day you practice walking and sitting meditation and generate the energy of mindfulness and concentration and peace, you are a cell in the body of the new Buddha. This is not a dream but is possible today and tomorrow.

Science is the captain, and practice the soldiers.

To practice five things under all circumstances constitutes perfect virtue; these five are gravity, generosity of soul, sincerity, earnestness, and kindness.

Communication is a skill that you can learn. It’s like riding a bicycle or typing. If you’re willing to work at it, you can rapidly improve the quality of evry part of your life.

Meditation is a vital practice to access conscious contact with your highest self.

What is common sense isn’t common practice.

Writing is like anything else – the more you do it, the better you get at it, the easier it comes, and the less concerned you’ll be about what’s going to happen to it, where it’s going, what it sounds like, whether it’s right.

Differences exist in practice and organization between the Lord’s Church and man-made institutions.

I know you’ve heard it a thousand times before. But it’s true – hard work pays off. If you want to be good, you have to practice, practice, practice. If you don’t love something, then don’t do it.

I’m an expert typist. I learned in high school. I would close my eyes and just type without worrying about mistakes. I tried to penetrate my heart, and as I let my thoughts drift, things bubbled up to the surface.

I have been practicing archery for a long time; a bow and arrow helps me to unwind.

You’re unlikely to discover something new without a lot of practice on old stuff, but further, you should get a heck of a lot of fun out of working out funny relations and interesting things.

Preaching is to much avail, but practice is far more effective. A godly life is the strongest argument you can offer the skeptic.

Politics is a noble activity. We should revalue it, practise it with vocation and a dedication that requires testimony, martyrdom, that is to die for the common good.

Opposite to godliness is atheism in profession, and idolatry in practice. Atheism is so senseless and odious to mankind, that it never had many professors.

To the man who reads ‚Scouting for Boys‘ superficially, there is a disappointing lack of religion in the book. But to him who tries it in practice, the basic religion underlying it soon becomes apparent.

The bat is not a toy, it’s a weapon. It gives me everything in life, which helps me to do everything on the field.

Take advantage of every opportunity to practice your communication skills so that when important occasions arise, you will have the gift, the style, the sharpness, the clarity, and the emotions to affect other people.

When you learn about the teaching and the practice of another tradition, you always have a chance to understand your own teaching and practice.

You can’t hire someone to practice for you.

My mother knew how to read music and everything. But I just kinda learned off of records. And so, I was listening to records and I’d play ‚em over and over.

We’re taking all of the lessons that we have from New Shepard and incorporating them into New Glenn.

Volleyball, I could be pretty good. After a few practices I could be that striker, or whatever they call it.

I just kept touring and touring until it became second nature to go onstage, perform, and sing.

When you have enough understanding and compassion in you, then that amount of understanding and compassion will try to express itself in action. And your practice should help you to cultivate more understanding and compassion.

To be a monk is to have time to practice for your transformation and healing. And after that to help with the transformation and healing of other people.

I think sim racing helps. I have improved in areas and do it whenever I need to improve. You don’t feel G-force and those things are probably the biggest things, that and the fear factor which you feel when you drive. Therefore, when I go on to the track I’m better.

A principle is the expression of perfection, and as imperfect beings like us cannot practise perfection, we devise every moment limits of its compromise in practice.

A new philosophy generally means in practice the praise of some old vice.

Your touch and your feel for the game is pretty much gone if you don’t work on it – at least get some shots up or dribble the ball.

You throw batting practice, you warm up pitchers, you sit and cheer. You do whatever you have to do to stay on the team.

There are always three speeches, for every one you actually gave. The one you practiced, the one you gave, and the one you wish you gave.

Some artists just ruin their voices because they don’t know any better.

Everybody should do at least two things each day that he hates to do, just for practice.

In Buddhist culture, offering food to the monk symbolizes the action of goodness, and if you have no opportunity to support the practice of spirituality, then you are somehow left in the realm of darkness.

Liberty doesn’t work as well in practice as it does in speeches.

A chorus is not easy.
