Famous quotes containing the word practice:

    They never consulted with books, and know and can tell much less than they have done. The things which they practice are said not yet to be known.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Predatory capitalism created a complex industrial system and an advanced technology; it permitted a considerable extension of democratic practice and fostered certain liberal values, but within limits that are now being pressed and must be overcome. It is not a fit system for the mid- twentieth century.
    Noam Chomsky (b. 1928)
