Ready

Famous quotes containing the word ready:

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

“I know some of my self-worth comes from tennis, and it’s hard to think of doing something else where you know you’ll never be the best. Tennis players are rare creatures: where else in the world can you know that you’re the best? The definitiveness of it is the beauty of it, but it’s not all there is to life and I’m ready to explore the alternatives.”
—Martina Navratilova (b. 1956)

“Face troubles from their birth, for ‘tis too late to cure
When long delay has given the evil strength.
Haste then; postpone not to the coming hour: tomorrow
He’ll be less ready who’s not ready now.”
—Ovid (Publius Ovidius Naso)
