A Quote by Jeffrey Carver

Practise, practise, practise writing. Writing is a craft that requires both talent and acquired skills. You learn by doing, by making mistakes and then seeing where you went wrong.

You do not have to practise all that you read. Take one or two things to practise and then it will become a reality to you.

Sathya Sai Baba

If I don't practise for one day, I know it; if I don't practise for two days, the critics knows it; if I don't practise for three days, the audience knows it.

Ignacy Jan Paderewski

I don't practise indirect free-kicks, but the technique and how I strike the ball I practise a lot.

Steph Houghton

Practise and practise to make your dreams turn into reality.

Chanda Kochhar

I don't practise it that much, maybe two or three times a week. It's a natural skill that I have, to hit long balls, so I don't need to practise it every day.

Ederson

Men of quality are in the wrong to undervalue, as they often do, the practise of a fair and quick hand in writing; for it is no immaterial accomplishment.

Quintilian

There are only two sorts of doctors; those who practise with their brains, and those who practise with their tongues.

William Osler

I was writing 'Outlander' for practise and didn't want anyone to know I was doing it. So I couldn't very well announce to my husband that I was quitting my job and abandoning him with three small children to visit Scotland to do research for a novel that I hadn't told him I was writing.

Diana Gabaldon

Whenever I practise in the nets, I practise each and every situation - be it with the new ball, be it with the old ball, or death bowling at the death.

Jasprit Bumrah

I was given a lot of homework: I had to practise ironing as a synth, practise washing up as a synth, cooking a meal as a synth. It's definitely the most prep I've had to do for a role.

Gemma Chan

It's a big moment, a heart-rate moment. It's all in the preparation for me. Watching the various takers, I can prepare as best I can. I can prepare, too, with my own team-mates - they practise, which, in turn, helps me practise trying to save penalties. I want as much confidence as I can in the preparation and then take it from that.

Joe Hart

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

She was the one getting me to practise football. My father has helped in other ways but my mum was the one grabbing the ball and telling me: 'Come on! Let's practise now. Let's go. Right, right, left, left.'

Jorginho

That's what I love about Australia: we can do things the way we want to do them, because that's the way our country is - no matter what culture you come from, you can come to Australia and practise your religion, you can practise your beliefs, and you shouldn't be judged for it.

Adam Goodes

I believe both the mind and the body need to be strong. We practise so hard that even if we hit a saturation point, we can't stop because that is the kind of dedication the sport requires.

Satnam Singh Bhamara

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.
