Tom DeMarco Quotes

You only get better by playing.

I think that training is important. I think you need to learn as much as you can learn. I would say that it's important and probably crucial, but I wouldn't say that everyone has to have it.

What makes knowledge automatic is what gets you to Carnegie Hall - practice, practice, practice.

Practice without improvement is meaningless.

There is nothing like practice.

It's about somebody initially knowing more about it than you do but eventually you learn a lot about it yourself and practise the skills and techniques that you've been taught.

Everything has technique to it. So if there's something you wanna try out, I think it's always good to get a trainer or listen to people who know what they're doing.

If you keep doing something over and over, you should get good at it.

When you play, you get an opportunity to hone your craft.

The only way you're going to improve is playing games and learning, being a regular week on week.

It's always great to get more reps.

I'm a student of the game, and any time you take more reps in a game, it's going to prepare you more.

I'll keep improving with more games.

Practice makes the master.

Practice only makes for improvement.

You can't get better at things you never play.

Either you have the ability to hit or not. But I also think you have to work at it.

You rely on a lot of things about learning to play a particular character.

Really, acting is like anything else. The more time you put in, the more you learn and the more you can give back to the industry.

It's all to do with the training: you can do a lot if you're properly trained.

Learn by practice.
