Ready

Famous quotes containing the word ready:

    The New Hampshire girls who came to Lowell were descendants of the sturdy backwoodsmen who settled that State scarcely a hundred years before.... They were earnest and capable; ready to undertake anything that was worth doing. My dreamy, indolent nature was shamed into activity among them. They gave me a larger, firmer ideal of womanhood.
    Lucy Larcom (1824–1893)

    To be ready to fail is to be prepared for success.
    José Bergamín (1895–1983)

    A man should ever, as much as in him lieth, be ready booted to take his journey.
    Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)
