Practicing

Famous quotes containing the word practicing:

    The forest of Compiegne. Look at it. Like a kind grandmother dozing in her rocking chair. Old trees practicing curtsies in the wind because they still think Louis XIV is king.
    Billy Wilder (b. 1906)

    As a practicing member of several oppressed minority groups, I feel that I have on the whole conducted myself with the utmost decorum. I have ... refrained from marching, chanting ... or in any other way making anything that could even vaguely be construed as a fuss.
    Fran Lebowitz (b. 1950)

    I have known a number of Don Juans who were good studs and who cavorted between the sheets without a psychiatrist to guide them. But most of the busy love-makers I knew were looking for masculinity rather than practicing it. They were fellows of dubious lust.
    Ben Hecht (1893–1964)
