Quotes by Practice Thought is a strenuous art - few practice it, and then only at rare times. David Ben-Gurion practiceart If there is a single secret, then it can be simply put. Think big, create, plan, rethink (even bigger) then prepare, practice and perform. David Berglas magicpracticethinking Whether you're shuffling a deck of cards or holding your breath, magic is pretty simple: It comes down to training, practice, and experimentation , followed up by ridiculous pursuit and relentless perseverance. David Blaine perseverancesimplepractice As the most extravagant errors were received among the established articles of their faith, so the most infamous vices obtained in their practice, and were indulged not only with impunity, but authorized by the sanction of their laws. David Brainerd errorspracticelaw The key factor separating geniuses from the merely accomplished is not a divine spark. It's not I.Q., a generally bad predictor of success, even in realms like chess.

David Brooks craftskeyspractice Spiritual practice is the capacity to offer your love even when you feel hurt, closed down, tense, angry, misunderstood, or hated.

David Fontana practicestruggleideas Prayer doesn’t work. Perhaps it makes the believer feel better (in the same way that meditation or deep thought would), but prayer doesn’t actually affect the external world.
