Quotes by Practice A critique is not a matter of saying that things are not right as they are. It is a matter of pointing out on what kinds of assumptions, what kinds of familiar, unchallenged, unconsidered modes of thought the practices that we accept rest. Michel Foucault kindpracticematter [Knowledge is governed not by] a theory of knowledge, but by a theory of discursive practice. Michel Foucault theory-of-knowledgetheorypractice A critique does not consist in saying that things aren't good the way they are.

Michelle Obama successfulpracticeyears Homosexuality appeared as one of the forms of sexuality when it was transposed from the practice of sodomy into a kind of interior androgyny, a hermaphroditism of the soul. The sodomite had been a temporary aberration; the homosexual was now a species. Michel Foucault aberrationsoulpractice What has changed since the collapse of Jim Crow has less to do with the basic structure of our society than with the language we use to justify it. In the era of colorblindness, it is no longer socially permissible to use race, explicitly, as a justification for discrimination, exclusion, and social contempt. So we don't. Rather than rely on race, we use our criminal justice system to label people of color "criminals" and then engage in all the practices we supposedly left behind. Michelle Alexander colorracepractice Do not use thought to ground a political practice in Truth; nor political action to discredit, as mere speculation, a line of thought. Use political practice as an intensifier of thought, and analysis as a multiplier of the forms and domains for the intervention of political action.

Mike Candrea practicegamesplay My opinion is that we must lend ourselves to others and give ourselves only to ourselves. If my will happened to be prone to mortgage and attach itself, I would not last: I am too tender, both by nature and by practice. Michel de Montaigne practiceselfgiving You don't need to justify your love, you don't need to explain your love, you just need to practice your love. Practice creates the master. Miguel Angel Ruiz practicelove-youneeds The idea that we are our brother's keeper and our sister's keeper. That we should treat others as we would want to be treated. And that we care for the sick... feed the hungry... and welcome the stranger... no matter where they come from, or how they practice their faith.
