Famous quotes containing the words yoga and/or practice:

    Depend upon it that, rude and careless as I am, I would fain practice the yoga faithfully.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    If I had my life over again I should form the habit of nightly composing myself to thoughts of death. I would practise, as it were, the remembrance of death. There is no other practice which so intensifies life. Death, when it approaches, ought not to take one by surprise. It should be part of the full expectancy of life. Without an ever- present sense of death life is insipid. You might as well live on the whites of eggs.
    Muriel Spark (b. 1918)
