"Practicing exercises you don't enjoy is confining and saps your energy, whereas practicing a difficult but beautiful piece of music gives you energy."

"If he wanted to exercise his legs, he wouldn't pace around the room; he would go for a walk in the park...."

"I prefer to spend all of their practice time on real music, even if it means isolating a difficult passage and working with it extensively as if it were an exercise." --from The Art of Practicing by Madeline Bruser
