"If I quit practicing one day, I hotice it; if I quit it two days, my friends notice it; and if I quit practicing three days, the public notices it." He said that only by perpetual attention and practice he was able to preserve the ease and delicacy of his touch. It is just like this with every profession or trade or calling, one must be trim and ready by constant devotion to his affairs.
