declaimed the following in gmane.comp.python.general:

Ideas which were summarized by the great pianist Josef Lhevine as
follows:

If I dont practice for one day I know it
If I dont practice for two days my audience knows it
If I dont practice for three days the critics know it

        Interesting... One would have thought the critics should have
detected the missing practice before the general audience... Unless that
is supposed to also be a dig on critics being the least knowledgeable
<G>

You are right. Critics before audience. And multiple people have been credited with the quote.
