The first meal was an object lesson of much variety. My father produced several kinds of food, ready to eat, without any cooking, from little tin cans that had printing all over them.
Mary Antin
Independent cinema is more thoughtful, delicate. While Western blockbusters can have their own kind of delicateness, it’s not delicate enough. You have to be ready to compromise to enter that field. I will do so only if it’s worth it.
Golshifteh Farahani
I feel like I’ve really earnt my stripes – I feel ready to play a lead. I would just love to prove I’m good enough to carry a project.
Natalie Dormer
I think that if you do want to be a fighter, then you need to work harder than everybody else and make sure that you surround yourself with good people, especially if you’re a woman. You’ve got to find a team that takes you seriously as a female fighter and is not going to rush you into the ring before you’re ready.
Laila Ali
I think we’re about ready for a new feeling to enter music. I think that will come from the Arabic world.
Brian Eno
Some people like just sitting down and being taken for a ride. That’s a beautiful thing that fiction can do. But it’s not the only thing. In television and film, people are ready to accept any kind of jump cut, but the slightest disturbance on the page ruffles their feathers.
Zadie Smith
Well, politics is much more severe than entertainment. You have to hit those points, in politics, word for word. You have to remember the date. You have to remember the website. You have to rehearse stories that might be asked, have anecdotes ready for questions that might come up.
Matt Walsh
Some years ago I became president of Columbia Universit

Some years ago I became president of Columbia University and learned within 24 hours to be ready to speak at the drop of a hat, and I learned something more, the trustees were expected to be ready to speak at the passing of the hat.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
The Party of the Regions has won a convincing victory. We are ready to undertake responsibility for forming the Cabinet and we are calling on everyone to join us.
Viktor Yanukovych
There are men – now in power in this country – who do not respect dissent, who cannot cope with turmoil, and who believe that the people of America are ready to support repression as long as it is done with a quiet voice and a business suit.
John Lindsay
When I’m ready to make a photograph, I think I quite obviously see in my minds eye something that is not literally there in the true meaning of the word. I’m interested in something which is built up from within, rather than just extracted from without.
Ansel Adams
I don’t do anything by myself. I have a whole crew to get me ready every day.
Iman
I think she was ready to go. Not to be kicked out. Go at the top. Undefeated.
Denis Thatcher
There were butterflies, otherwise, you’re not really ready to play. The locker room, I remember, was quiet and we were very focused on playing that game.
John Starks
Such sins, even if they do not kill all grace in us, do harm, nevertheless; and though they are only venial in themselves, they make us apt, ready, and inclined to lose grace and to fall into mortal sin.
Johannes Tauler
A self-respecting nation is ready for anything, including war, except for a renunciation of its option to make war.
Simone Weil
I think the world is ready for some rock ‘n’ roll. Some real time guys that play their own instruments, write their own songs, and sing the music and have a good time doing it.
Vince Neil
You have it within your grasp to be regarded as one of the greatest legislative sessions in the history of the state. If you’re bold and if you’re ready to aggressively reach for our future, all the ingredients are here. The opportunities are waiting for us.
Dirk Kempthorne
We have to continue to learn. We have to be open. And we have to be ready to release our knowledge in order to come to a higher understanding of reality.
Thich Nhat Hanh
Write a book you’d like to read. If you wouldn’t read it, why would anybody else? Don’t write for a perceived audience or market. It may well have vanished by the time your book’s ready.
Hilary Mantel
The secret of success is to be ready when your opportunity comes.
Benjamin Disraeli
This nation is really ready for a woman president. It’s taken time, but we’re ready.
Ellen Malcolm
Life is full of surprises, and you need to be ready for everything.
Massimiliano Allegri
Head Start is designed to ensure that all children – regardless of their family’s income, race, or ethnic background – are able to enter kindergarten ready to learn.
Lucille Roybal-Allard
I just went up to my mom one day and said, ‘I wanna be on TV. I wanna be a superstar!’ Since I know this is my passion, and I feel like God chose this career for me, I just knew I was ready to do it.
Storm Reid
One never comes into embarrassment, if one is ready to balance. To ask oneself never in embarrassment, what have you in these decades made.
Siegfried Lenz
We have to pay close attention to what we see, and be ready to work with the unexpected according to the basic principles of systems biology and medicine.
Mark Hyman
I’m ready for some rock ‘n’ roll action.
Mick Ralphs
Again, I shall be told that the law presumes the husband to be kind, affectionate, and ready to provide for and protect his wife. But what right, I ask, has the law to presume at all on the subject?
Ernestine Rose
It was an extreme pleasure to be a part of the MCU, and if and when the call comes for me to return to the universe, I will be more than ready.
Simu Liu
I would enjoy flying to Mars. This was the dream of the first cosmonauts. I wish I could realize it! I am ready to fly without coming back.
Valentina Tereshkova
I’m ready to do something with Lady Gaga or Andrea Bocelli. I’m really grateful that nothing is out of the realm of possibility.
Carlos Santana
True penitence condemns to silence. What a man is ready to recall he would be willing to repeat.
F. H. Bradley
I was notified on July 17 to be ready to start August 7 for an October air date. When we reached the screen we did not have a single segment ready. It was done so fast the writers never got a chance to know what it was all about.
Jeffrey Hunter
My vanity was flattered by having been mistaken for our revered sovereign. I ordered a banquet to be got ready for the following evening, under the trees before my house, and invited the whole town.
Adelbert von Chamisso
The thing is, my fantasies about being a parent always involved fighting for my unpopular child, doing for her what my own parents couldn’t do for me when I was a girl. I am so ready to be that little girl’s mother.
Ayelet Waldman
What matters most is a good and ready will to obey God.
Johannes Tauler
I don’t feel tentative when I start to write. I’ve usually thought about a novel or novella for several years and created a lot of juice and density and energy by that time so by the time I get ready to go, I just let ‘er fling, you know.
Jim Harrison
The only freedom I care about is the freedom to do righ

The only freedom I care about is the freedom to do right; the freedom to do wrong I am ready to part with on the cheapest terms to anyone who will take it of me.
Thomas Huxley
I was ready to quit music. It felt to me like music equalled death.
Dave Grohl
And each man stands with his face in the light. Of his own drawn sword, ready to do what a hero can.
Elizabeth Barrett Browning
I’m waiting for the time when I fail – because we all fail – and I’m ready, I’ll take up carpentry.
Adrian Edmondson
Until this movie I have played a boxer, a cowboy, a knight, a prince, an elf and a pirate. I am so glad to have done all of that already, and am ready for this phase of my career.
Orlando Bloom
There is nothing else can get you ready for matches than matches.
Ashleigh Barty
There is no scientific discoverer, no poet, no painter, no musician, who will not tell you that he found ready made his discovery or poem or picture – that it came to him from outside, and that he did not consciously create it from within.
William Kingdon Clifford
I once joked in a book that there are three things you can’t do in life. You can’t beat the phone company, you can’t make a waiter see you until he is ready to see you, and you can’t go home again.
Bill Bryson
To believe in love, to be ready to give up anything for it, to be willing to risk your life for it, is the ultimate tragedy.
Leonardo DiCaprio
When it comes to making tough decisions, I’m ready to make them.
Brian France
I put a lot into my body on and off the field that really gets me ready for the next day.
A. J. Green
The day after my mom died I fly back to California and spend the three weeks before the California primary making arrangements for her cremation, planning and getting the house ready for a memorial service and covering political rallies in Southern California. The normalcy of work helps.
Brianna Keilar
Not everything happens as we want or desire. It doesn’t matter. I’m a fighter, and I’m ready to fight every time.
Valentina Shevchenko
I am one hundred percent ready to be a spokesperson for the deaf community.
Nyle DiMarco
I know in my training, especially when I’m building up to a big ‘max,’ I can take as long as I want to be ready for that lift and mentally prepare for it. In the contest, some of that goes out the window. When your name is called and the bar is loaded, you’ve got to go whether you’re ready or not.
Brian Shaw
The day I initiated divorce proceedings against Michael Farmer, I was ready to retire to a desert cave and rethink my life.
Gloria Swanson
When you are an outsider, no one is ready to meet you or listen to you. People have even said that there are thousands of Sonu Soods out there, and they don’t have time to cater to each one of them.
Sonu Sood
In ’84 there was Raheem, Slim Jukebox, and Sir Rap-A-Lot. Those were the first three members of the Geto Boys with DJ Ready Red. By ’85 it was Prince Johnny C, Slim Jukebox, Bushwick Bill, and DJ Ready Red. By ’89 it was Scarface, Willie D, Bushwick Bill, and Ready Red.
Bushwick Bill
So the guy that we’re really targeting our system at this year is one of the guys who brought a 16bit system three or four years ago and has pretty much had it with that, and he’s ready to buy something new.
Trip Hawkins
One baby is a patient baby, and waits indefinitely until its mother is ready to feed it. The other baby is an impatient baby and cries lustily, screams and kicks and makes everybody unpleasant until it is fed. Well, we know perfectly well which baby is attended to first. That is the whole history of politics.
Emmeline Pankhurst
The more experience you have, the more confidence you get and the more ready you are.
Robert Kubica
I’m far too low maintenance to ever spend more than five minutes getting ready to go out.
Sienna Miller
I’m not ready for another series. I have fun doing other kinds of things.
Robert Urich
I really get inspired by songs. Like, if I hear a thug ‘Want to kill ya’ song, I’m ready to go out and get crazy. Or if you hear this really sexual, sensual slow song, I want to go have sex. I’m very animalistic when it comes to stuff like that. Very basic emotions.
Channing Tatum
I think my passion is misinterpreted as anger sometimes. And I don’t think people are ready for the message that I’m delivering, and delivering with a sense of violent love.
Charlie Sheen
The studio is not the place to write. You need to be 75% ready when you go into the studio, and then the music can develop to the next stage.
Rick Wakeman
I’m ready for a Christianity that ‘ruins’ my life, that captures my heart and makes me uncomfortable. I want to be filled with an astonishment which is so captivating that I am considered wild and unpredictable and… well… dangerous. Yes, I want to be ‘dangerous’ to a dull and boring religion.
Mike Yaconelli
We are ready to sacrifice our souls, our children and our families so as not to give up Iraq. We say this so no one will think that America is capable of breaking the will of the Iraqis with its weapons.
Saddam Hussein
Waiting makes me restless. When I’m ready, I’m ready.
Reba McEntire
In 2009, I pushed for the creation and funding of early childhood block grants to ensure that more kids enter kindergarten ready to learn. It’s really not rocket science: Put kids on the right path at an early age – and keep them there.
Laura Kelly
I endured many weeks of it, but I had a big background in martial arts and fighting as a kid, so kind of all the problems got brushed away and I was ready.
Jason Statham
I guess I say this for younger actors out there: you ha

I guess I say this for younger actors out there: you have to be brave, and you have to be ready to fail, and that’s the only way you can be unique. So when a director is confident enough in what they’re doing, and they allow their actors to be brave and bring in stuff, the more likely it’s going to work out okay.
Vincent D’Onofrio
People shouldn’t be forced to chose between paying for rent or paying for medication. They deserve a government ready to take on Big Pharma by implementing health coverage, starting by extending pharmacare coverage to every Canadian.
Jagmeet Singh
Every off-season you look at what you can improve on. So you come in for the new season fresh and ready to go again.
Mason Mount
The rate of return on Social Security for people nearing retirement is about 1.5 percent. By the time young children like mine are ready to retire, that rate of return will be a negative percentage.
Paul Ryan
My missus likes my steak and coleslaw. My coleslaw’s not pure handmade, the cabbage will be ready to go but I’ll add stuff to it.
Aaron Mooy
As the scripts come in they are sent to the artists, and the artists are either very busy, or ready to start.
Garth Ennis
When I was younger, I was ready to go off at any time. My wife, Linda, and I would go out to the Limelight in New York, and I would see people and be able to freeze them with a look. People were even too scared of me to tell me that people were scared of me.
Johnny Ramone
A big part of my decision is not made about whether I’m able to coach in the NHL or if I’m ready to step up and take that challenge. Basically, it’s about my family, it’s about my children, and this is where my decision is going to have to be made.
Patrick Roy
One secret of success in life is for a man to be ready for his opportunity when it comes.
Benjamin Disraeli
I think we’re in good shape, but the tragedy of Hurricane Katrina is in some small way mitigated by the fact that we now have more people talking about it, thinking about it and working on it, so that we will be more vigilant and ready.
John Hickenlooper
I was working straight for nine months and I’m exhausted. I’m ready to relax for a little while and read. I don’t want to work for work sake; I have to be excited about it.
Sanaa Lathan
I accept the calling of my generation to give our children the America that was given to us, with opportunity for the young and security for the old – and I know that we are ready.
Paul Ryan
Right now, I don’t have the same urges as other women when they see a baby. When I see children, I see responsibilities, which I don’t think I’m quite ready for. I feel the same about puppies. They’re cute for a second, but there’s a lot of responsibility involved.
Gabrielle Union
I think in 1997, I was in my absolute prime. I was never bitter; I was uninjured. I was ready to go and ready to make some serious changes to make a difference to have my all-time favorite matches that I would have loved to have.
Bret Hart
I was at a party, and some squiggly looking dude with a bow tie came up and said, ‘How’d you like to be on TV?’ Turns out he was the programming guy at the Food Network. They had me come into the office, and I did a ‘Ready, Set, Cook’ with Emeril Lagasse, I believe.
Mario Batali
I need eight weeks, train hard, last one week make weight, and go to the war. Because when I go to the war, I have to know I am ready or no.
Khabib Nurmagomedov
I retire with a smile on my face, in good health, and ready to spend autumns at my kids’ games instead of my own. I’m excited to start the next chapter of my life.
Drew Bledsoe
And it’s here and it’s ready and we can really revolutionize the way we educate our children with tablet computers, and I’m committed to doing whatever I can to speaking to whomever I can to send this signal – to pound this message home. Now is the time.
LeVar Burton
We are not ready to tolerate any harm coming to our country, and we will fight all powers that cause harm to our country, that work against our country’s interests.
Nawaz Sharif
Trumpet players see each other, and it’s like we’re getting ready to square off or get into a fight or something.
Wynton Marsalis
I think there’s something special and timeless about girls getting ready together.
Erin Heatherton
If you’re not willing to let your partner see your cellulite or know your biggest fears, then you aren’t really ready to share yourself.
Iyanla Vanzant
People on the streets are ready for hockey.
Eric Lindros
One problem I have with faith-healing is that it tends to be focused only on the physical aspect of healing. But Jesus always backed away when people came to him only to get their physical needs met. My goodness, he was ready to have you lop off your hand! His real interest was in healing the soul.
Joni Eareckson Tada
We played hard and we partied hard. I’m not ashamed of that. I was no angel – I did some things I shouldn’t have done, lived a lifestyle I shouldn’t have lived. I had a blast at times; other times, I probably compromised my job, my duty to do my job, to be ready as a professional.
David Cone
I always did something I was a little not ready to do. I think that’s how you grow. When there’s that moment of ‘Wow, I’m not really sure I can do this,’ and you push through those moments, that’s when you have a breakthrough.
Marissa Mayer
I will walk out on a scene if it’s all lit and ready to go but it’s not happening.
Debra Winger
To become a superstar, it’s not only the voice. You have to have all these things: talent, determination, be ready to work, ready to understand.
Rene Angelil
I love getting ready to do a scene, and thinking about it, and talking about it. But the rest of the time, I’m so nervous and obsessed. I’m just tearing my hair out in the trailer. The whole time I’m really tense.
Casey Affleck
Those golden minutes before you are completely awake, when your mind is just drifting, you have no censorship; you are ready to develop any kind of idea. That’s when I come up with the best and worst ideas. That is the privilege of being a writer – that you can stay in bed for an hour in the morning and it’s work time.
Jo Nesbo
Sometimes opportunities float right past your nose. Work hard, apply yourself, and be ready. When an opportunity comes you can grab it.
Julie Andrews
I don't tweet very much. I still believe in the mystery

I don’t tweet very much. I still believe in the mystery of an artist. I believe in going out when I’m ready to sell my product. A lot of artists are out there every day. But I remember the Julio Iglesiases, the Jose Joses – and it was about the music.
Romeo Santos
This industry has been really good to me. It’s been a great life. I’m not through yet. I’m ready when you are, Mr. DeMille.
Anthony Hopkins
Yeah, I still feel as if I have things to do really. I’m not ready to stop.
Peter Hook
The next time you see an outside day with a down close lower than the previous day, don’t get scared, get ready to buy!
Larry Williams
Between now and then and I just felt it was ready and it was a long enough period gone by. I obviously didn’t want to hurt anybody, you know. It was done out of a genuine memorial or tribute whatever you want to call it.
Jack Bruce
I always liked the idea in ‘Potter’ that you don’t choose the wand, the wand chooses you, and that relics decide when you’re ready to handle them. I’m a cinephile first and a filmmaker second, and it’s all swimming in the subconscious.
Scott Derrickson
You have to identify your shot and be ‘Push your luck’ ready for it.
D. B. Sweeney
People expect you to play your best, so I go through a routine to prepare myself so that I know I’m physically and mentally ready – prepared for the game.
Nomar Garciaparra
And I would really like to be a grandmother, but only when Felix or Emily meet the right person and are ready.
Jilly Cooper
There is a huge market ready to accept good Tamil content.
Vetrimaaran
The real scientist is ready to bear privation and, if need be, starvation rather than let anyone dictate to him which direction his work must take.
Albert Szent-Gyorgyi
With a theatre audience there’s always the additional sense of a sustained challenge of which I’m acutely aware and for which you need to have the tools ready – your voice, physicality, brain.
Greta Scacchi
I would be ready to become a dad if I was with the right person. I’d like a boy, though. Because they’re in charge.
Mario Balotelli
I love making movies, but I was ready to rationalize being only a mother if my career never got back on track.
Jane Greer
If we can’t begin to agree on fundamentals, such as the elimination of the most abusive forms of child labor, then we really are not ready to march forward into the future.
Alexis Herman
My daily style is easy and effortless – I don’t like to take too much time getting ready.
Kourtney Kardashian
You ready? I have gold teeth, I have braids, I’m wearing Rick Owens moon boots, I have rips in my denim, a biker vest, I love artsy girls, my favourite artists are Jimi Hendrix and John Lennon. I’m obsessed with being different.
ASAP Rocky
You must stick to your conviction, but be ready to abandon your assumptions.
Denis Waitley
It’s funny how God will change your plans for you when he’s ready.
Brett Young
I always figure I have this tree and there’s always some green fruit that’s not ready to pick or blossoms that are ready to flower; there are always some ready to drop off too.
Graeme Murphy
Once we decided to be in this industry, we have to be ready for everything. You have to be strong but hard working. No pain, no gain.
Sridevi
It’s about listening to the land and being patient and being ready to absorb our dreaming or our path or our destiny slowly, with patience, being ready to absorb that when it’s time and not chasing it.
Xavier Rudd
When you get ready to vote, make sure you know what you are doing.
Robert Hunter
Reading maketh a full man; conference a ready man; and writing an exact man.
Francis Bacon
People are very ready to criticize other people’s accents. There’s no correlation between accents and intelligence or accents and criminality, but people do make judgments.
David Crystal
What we perceive as a failure may simply be our inner being’s way of telling us that we are ready to move to a new level of growth.
Anne Wilson Schaef
Certainly there is, for the American Negro artist who can escape the restrictions the more advanced among his own group would put upon him, a great field of unused material ready for his art.
Langston Hughes
I’d update my resume so you’re ready for any outcome.
Bob Weinstein
I don’t know if everybody is ready to hear a woman tell them so-and-so is going to run off left tackle. But you know what? They’re going to hear it.
Lesley Visser
Our chemical and other manufacturing concerns are all too often ready to let the Germans have Latin American markets, provided the American companies can work out an arrangement which will enable them to charge high prices to the consumer inside the United States.
Henry A. Wallace
That’s the best thing about writing, when you’re in that zone, you’re porous, ready to absorb the solution.
Michael Chabon
Love fills and empties simultaneously. It makes us reac

Love fills and empties simultaneously. It makes us reach out to God, ready to be pruned, recklessly desiring whatever the cost. It soothes the aching heart and then makes it thirst for more.
Mother Angelica
There is no one, says another, whom fortune does not visit once in his life; but when she does not find him ready to receive her, she walks in at the door, and flies out at the window.
Montesquieu
I knew as long as I stayed focused on my priorities, I would be ready for life’s ups and downs.
Philip Rivers
These days, right now, these are the good old days. I’ve always approached it that way. That’s why I’m still working. I’m not the guy who is ready to sit by the pool.
Richard D. Zanuck
Well, it’s still another two-day competition, so it’s really important to show that you’re ready. Every meet is really important right now. You’ve got to keep showing you can hit.
Carly Patterson
The most important thing is to be passionate and ready to accept the pains that sometimes go along with the business.
Christopher Lambert
When you work with Ray Charles, Billy Eckstine and Frank Sinatra, and you tell them to jump without a net, you better know what you’re talking about. Thank God I was ready for it.
Quincy Jones
I think some people think I’m, like, anti-label, and I’m not. I just wanted to sign a deal when the time was right. I’m anti being shot out of a rocket when you’re not ready and the songs and image aren’t there.
Iggy Azalea
To feel most beautifully alive means to be reading something beautiful, ready always to apprehend in the flow of language the sudden flash of poetry.
John Holmes
No tyrant, however evil, has yet lacked ready hands to execute his most abominable will. To read how eagerly men have rushed to serve the despot is the bitterest, the saddest matter of history; it is the saddest sight in our own day.
Richard Jefferies
The more one loves a mistress, the more one is ready to hate her.
Francois de La Rochefoucauld
If you’re not ready to die, then how can you live?
Charles de Lint
A fact of modern life is that it takes women longer to get ready than men.
Jessica Savitch
Being ready isn’t enough; you have to be prepared for a promotion or any other significant change.
Pat Riley
If we will be quiet and ready enough, we shall find compensation in every disappointment.
Henry David Thoreau
Players are ready to play, We’re not on strike. It’s a lockout.
Dwyane Wade
Loving is doing anything for them, thinking about them constantly and being able to spend your whole life with that person. Liking somebody is just like, ‘Okay, I like them because of this, this and this, but I don’t knkow if I am ready to be in love with them’.
Chris Brown
At Kansas City, Kansas, before the saloons were closed, they were getting ready to build an addition to the jail. Now the doors swing idly on the hinges and there is nobody to lock in the jails.
Billy Sunday
I’ve heard there are troubles of more than one kind; some come from ahead, and some come from behind. But I’ve brought a big bat. I’m all ready, you see; now my troubles are going to have troubles with me!
Dr. Seuss
Growing up, we played sports nonstop. I mean every single day. As soon I got done with breakfast, I was ready to go.
Walter Payton
We are fully aware that, in a world at war, each set of belligerents is over ready to regard those who are not with them as against them; but the course we have followed is a just course.
Eamon de Valera
My mum is a fashion inspiration to me. She always goes to great lengths to get ready in the morning, from her hair to her makeup to her nails, and matching her suit with her shoes.
Ncuti Gatwa
I’m ready to conquer anything thrown at me.
A. J. Pritchard
You know, I don’t know what the future will bring, but I’m ready for whatever comes!
Sissy Spacek
I am ready to go super bold. I would like to thank not just my husband but even my in-laws, who have had no problems with my bold characters. You may find it surprising that we all discuss my scripts on the dining table.
Kirti Kulhari
We are always getting ready to live but never living.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
I remember 9/11; we had ‘Comics Come Home’ about a month after those events. That night, even the comedians were concerned. Would the audience be ready to laugh? It was a release for everyone.
Denis Leary
Christians should be ready for a change because Jesus was the greatest changer in history.
Ralph Abernathy
I believe that North Carolina is Strong, Resilient and Ready to face the challenges of the future.
Roy Cooper
I was little impressed with this rough and ready way of persuading people to renew their contracts and decided that I was now quite free of any obligations.
Pietro Mascagni
BJP is ready to go to any extent to protest for the rights of Ayyappa devotees. Beliefs should be respected. Man-woman equality is must, but gender equality cannot be established by giving entry to men and women together. There are several temples that deny men entry.
Amit Shah
South Africa has all the tools to compete in the new gl

South Africa has all the tools to compete in the new global village – an eager workforce, ready to take on any challenge.
Tom Peters
You know how most dogs lick you on the cheek? If you’re sleeping and not ready for it, my dog, Joe, will get his tongue inside your mouth. It’s by far the worst kiss I’ve ever had.
Will Estes
If you have a dream, you can spend a lifetime studying, planning, and getting ready for it. What you should be doing is getting started.
Drew Houston
You look at it as a privilege. So you really decide that you’re going to put the time in and work really hard to get to the point where you’re ready.
Mark Kelly
They do say that the profession gets increasingly difficult, but my career seems to have been inside out. I’m playing the biggest parts now that I’m older. That’s probably right, because I wasn’t ready for them before.
Diana Rigg
Well, Mr. Speaker, if so many of these Iraqis are ready to come up and to provide the security, the police work in the country, then surely there should be no problem with putting American forces into the background instead of having them up front.
Marty Meehan
It’s not about, ‘Let me play as long as I can so I don’t have to grow up.’ It’s about, ‘Let me play as long as I enjoy it,’ and when it’s time to step away, I can step away gracefully even if I’m still good enough to keep playing, because I’m ready for that next phase.
Angela Ruggiero
For some reason in Spring Training, everything just clicked. You don’t try to do anything in Spring Training but get ready, but things fell into place.
Bobby Bonilla
One of my first jobs was at the Boston Globe. I worked in the sports department six months a year. When I was ready to graduate, the sports editor gave me a job as a schoolboy sports writer.
Will McDonough
We gotta show up and pay attention to details, embracing the process of hard work, and developing our bodies and minds to get ready for the season.
Antonio Brown
I’m hungry to learn, so I always have my big ears open fully, ready to learn every single minute when I play.
Hiromi Uehara
This nation has been through hard times. But those hard times have hardened our resolve. I’m ready to do the difficult work ahead. But I want to do that work with Barack Obama, and not a Tea Party ideologue. We can move America forward, but we can only do it together.
Harry Reid
I am ready to fight according to the rules, and I ask for the opportunity to prove myself.
Yingluck Shinawatra
About three months after I had Kelly, I went and played in Canada. I felt great, I was ready to go and I was very energetic. But as soon as I started playing, I thought ‘no, too soon.’ I went back home and slept for two days.
Evonne Goolagong Cawley
I’m very into my cars. I always ready the Top Gear magazines just to see what cars are out next and what sort of performance they give. It can range from the smallest cars to the biggest ones.
Micah Richards
It takes me about two hours to run into Target. People always want a picture. They hem and haw, and they can’t spit the words out, so they waste about five minutes of my time just standing there getting ready for a picture. Just do it!
Abby Lee Miller
I’d been ready too, because before Olympic Games, I wasn’t compete in big competition like, World Championship, like European Championship. I just competed in national competition.
Olga Korbut
Here, I declare that the Palestine Liberation Organization is ready to return immediately to the negotiating table on the basis of the adopted terms of reference based on international legitimacy and a complete cessation of settlement activities.

Things are going very smoothly. As expected, there are some minor glitches, and the eight minutes that it took us to get to orbit, we trained months and months for, and didn’t have to use any of that preparation, other than being aware and ready.
Laurel Clark
I look out the window sometimes to seek the color of the shadows and the different greens in the trees, but when I get ready to paint I just close my eyes and imagine a scene.

E. M. Forster
Are you ready to have your mind blown? Sometimes Ron Howard uses swear words.
Dave Itzkoff
Getting ready to wrestle is like getting ready for a car crash. Getting ready to work with Brock Lesnar is like knowing you’re going to get hit by a bus and the bus is going to back over you. If I’m going to work ‘WrestleMania,’ 16 weeks out I have to start training like I’m Mayweather getting ready for a fight.

If I would take a job with a professional league, I need to be ready.
Thomas Dooley
President Kennedy was willing to go to war. He was not a coward. The man had been in war and so had Ken O’Donnell. He was ready to protect this nation, but he was not ready for a military solution just because it was being rammed down his throat.
Kevin Costner
I ran to my marriage, I was happily ready to take on ma

I ran to my marriage, I was happily ready to take on marriage.

Just got to keep going out there and keep swinging. That’s all I can really do. Getting work in, doing everything I can to get ready for the game.
Freddie Freeman
When people start writing there is this idea that you have to get everything right first time, every sentence has to be perfect, every paragraph has to be perfect, every chapter has to be perfect, but what you’re doing is not any kind of public show, until you’re ready for it.
Irvine Welsh
I was sitting on the bus, and the sign said if you’re ready to better your life, come to Medgar Evers College, and I got off the bus and went to Medgar Evers College.

Donovan Bailey
I just blow-dry my hair and put on mascara and lip gloss, and I’m ready to go. I really don’t get long nails. They’re so Edward Scissorhands.

Abigail Washburn
Well, every time I get ready to do a job I want to lose weight.

Chrissy Teigen
Any therapist will tell you that when you’re ready, you will come out. To be outed means you weren’t ready.
Billie Jean King
We need to get ready for a world where terrorism will not ever fully go away.
Major Owens
A patriot must always be ready to defend his country against his government.
Edward Abbey
If I go to a movie and it’s particularly violent, and people are leaving the theatre ready to vomit, we’re sitting there with our popcorn just chuckling.
George A. Romero
All I can really control is how I prepare and get ready for whatever team picks me.

Jennifer Love Hewitt
It is clear that the nation that assumes stewardship of the Moon now will inherit stewardship of the galaxy in the coming millennium. I think the USA is ready for that challenge!
Wilson Greatbatch
Even with only two people on board, where maintenance is a large piece of our working day, we still have time to do scientific research. We have to be ready to support those Shuttle visits in a lot of different ways.
John L. Phillips
Many people die with their music still in them. Why is this so? Too often it is because they are always getting ready to live. Before they know it, time runs out.
Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr.
Happiness is not something ready made. It comes from your own actions.
Dalai Lama
We’re given the springboard of the text, a plane ticket, told to report to Alabama, and there’s a group of people all ready to make a film and it’s a marvelous life.
Albert Finney
I think if you exercise, your state of mind – my state of mind – is usually more at ease, ready for more mental challenges. Once I get the physical stuff out of the way it always seems like I have more calmness and better self-esteem.
Stone Gossard
People can't go into the street endlessly. My friends g

People can’t go into the street endlessly. My friends get asked why aren’t they going to the next protest? They answer, ‘Because we’re tired of being thousands. I’m ready to become the 100,000th person at a rally, but I don’t want to be the 10,000th. Because it’s pointless.’
Ksenia Sobchak
I don’t want to let my guard down and feel too comfortable. If you become complacent, you start feeling entitled. I’m ready to go dig ditches if I have to. Whatever I gotta do to provide for my family. Whatever I gotta do to make sure that I do the best possible job at whatever wonderful opportunities I’ve been handed.
Mark Wahlberg
The NBA has the best point guards in the world, so it is important that I come ready to play every night.
Steve Nash
We are all ready to be savage in some cause. The difference between a good man and a bad one is the choice of the cause.
William James
I’m getting ready to write a piece now, and it’s been six months thinking about it, changing the instrumentation, changing the name, doing more reading.
John Zorn
I was quite ready to accept certain restrictions on the United States. After all, there was a great dollar shortage. It was quite clear that the more prosperous Europe became, the more business there would be in the United States.
W. Averell Harriman
I am ready to act in Punjabi movies, but offers have to be worth it.
Shamita Shetty
I knew Scotty was going to win. At the beginning of the episode, I was like, ‘Scotty, are you ready to win?’. I knew he was going to in my heart. I accepted it. I couldn’t pick a more perfect person to get second place to. He’s my best friend.
Lauren Alaina
On ‘There Will Be Blood,’ I was cast at the last minute. I had 3 and a half to 4 days to get ready for the first day. I just went for it, threw myself in there and gave it everything I had. That was just guts and instinct, not a lot of preparation.
Paul Dano
I have to take the positives from 2012 and the negatives as well because you learn more than you do from the positives. It has been a great season last year, a lot of learning, and now it’s another approach. The way I will approach this year is totally different, so we are ready to fight for it.
Sergio Perez
Trance is a very emotional and uplifting form of dance music. It appeals to many people in this way having such a strong connection with emotions. It makes people happy and ready to party.
Tiesto
Being trans, I’ve grown up with the understanding that most women are born girls, yet some are born boys. And most men are born boys, yet some are born girls. And if you’re ready for this, some people are born girls or boys and choose to identify outside our society’s binary system, making them genderqueer.
Janet Mock
I’ve played basketball, and I’ve stood at the free-throw line with a tie game and 0.2 seconds left. But there is no feeling in the world like being in that ring when they close it up and ask, ‘Are you ready?’

Zac Efron
I like people who refuse to speak until they are ready to speak.

The beautiful souls are they that are universal, open, and ready for all things.

Personally I’m always ready to learn, although I do not always like being taught.

Patrick Stewart
To be truly free, you should be ready to risk everything for freedom.
Pavel Durov
I don’t want to have kids for like 10 years. I still have a lot to do. I don’t even know if I could handle a dog right now. I’m so not ready. Someday I’ll be a mom but not until I’m in my 30s.
Avril Lavigne
And I remember leaving my place in L.A. and – my father is a big fight fan – and I said, ‘Dad, I got a couple of days off and I’m getting ready to go to Houston to sign to fight Muhammad Ali.
Wilt Chamberlain
I’m always ready to be challenged. Like, ‘Wings: Outro,’ it was hip-house. That was the first time I’d ever listened to that genre… but I liked it.

Gordon Parks
The least learned, for the most part, have been always most ready to write.

I haven’t got an opportunity to experiment with the dimensions of my moustache much. But yes, if the role demands, I’m ready to shave it off. I feel it’s good to have moustaches for South films, but I’d love to remove my moustache; why not?
Ravi Teja
Quarterbacks are always ready.
Jack Kemp
If bad and inexperienced politicians control power in Nigeria, my wealth may turn into poverty, and I am not ready to become a poor man.
Aliko Dangote
Britain needs a diverse energy mix – home grown renewables, new nuclear, a switch from dirty coal to cleaner gas, and, when the technology is ready, carbon capture and storage. Diversity will keep the lights on and ensure we go green at the lowest possible cost.
Ed Davey
I think everything happens for a reason and all the thi

I think everything happens for a reason and all the things that happened to me – good, bad – I’m glad they did. It’s made me ready for life, for adulthood.
Freddy Adu
Some groups get started too fast, and they’re in the studio before they’re ready to record.

I won’t go into the details, but I ready myself for the day. I am a high-maintenance type of guy.
Nick Cave
I never thought that I could reach such a high political position. But I have always been ready to serve my country.
Atifete Jahjaga
I do admit to being challenging, but it’s always for the work, it’s never personal. I will walk out on a scene if it’s all lit and ready to go but it’s not happening.
Debra Winger
The time I’m not spending with my kid has to be worth it, so when I sat down with my agents after I was ready to go back to work, I told them: It’s all about the directors.
Jessica Alba
I’m still hungry. I’ve still got a million ideas. I’m still strong and ready to create.
Barry Manilow
I’m not saying I didn’t have ample time to recover, ample time to get to my best, I felt this year I did fine. When I stepped on the field for the national team, I was ready and able to make an impact, to score goals, to create chances.
Tiffeny Milbrett
One is never ready for success. It consecrates and looses you at the same time.
Isabelle Adjani
I only really cast people who are desperate to be in it – who were dying to be in it, whose talent I believed in and were dead ready to do the work that was necessary.
Kenneth Branagh
I’m ready to work and if it happens, it happens. If it doesn’t, it’s fine.
Donna Summer
I desire to put off my trial as long as I can till I can get my evidence ready.
William Kidd
The world is always ready to receive talent with open arms. Very often it does not know what to do with genius.
Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr.
Francisco Garcia could have been a high draft choice last year, probably in the 20s. He’s the best wing player I’ve ever coached. But he’s done it the right way. He knew he had to work on his body to become a good pro. When he goes into the pros, he’ll be physically ready.
Rick Pitino
I have never been ready 100% even when I was racing in my gold times.
Robert Kubica
Whatever you’re ready for is ready for you.
Mark Victor Hansen

Raphael Varane
I’m ready to win.
Asafa Powell
It was becoming clear that, from being at the top at Holy Cross, we were at the bottom at St. Peter’s. Objectively, this was very good, for it offered us a challenge and an opportunity to grow if we were ready to take it; and we surely were.
Oliver Tambo
I had to live this long, have the experiences I’ve had, to create what I do. I knew I wanted to write for years, but I had to be ready so I wouldn’t blow it. The move to Maine was the final step.
Terry Goodkind
I think I was afraid of being a mother for many reasons. I wanted to be a good mom, and I was fearful at one point of even working at the national level because I was afraid that I would disappoint a child or I wouldn’t be as ready for a big position as maybe I should have been when I came to Fox.
Ainsley Earhardt
If I can tell you the story from beginning to end in five minutes, I’m ready to start writing. Then it’s a constant spreading out of that five minutes.
Richard Price
Billie Jean King is one of the all-time tennis greats; she’s one of the superstars. She’s ready for the big one, but she doesn’t stand a chance against me. Women’s tennis is so far beneath men’s tennis; that’s what makes the contest with a 55-year-old man the greatest contest of all time.
Bobby Riggs
Timing is a very important part of being a father. You should never show your kids things before they’re ready. Especially with movies. Toys like Lego are okay because the fact that your 3-year-old can’t understand the instructions ultimately leads you to constructing it yourself… the secret plan all along.
Rhys Darby
We have a saying in the Marine Corps and that is ‘no better friend, no worse enemy, than a U.S. Marine.’ We always hope for the first, friendship, but are certainly more than ready for the second.
John F. Kelly
Our government is ready to guarantee their investments for them, and then we will create tax incentives. We are interested in having all these things and with the privatization we also want to create more jobs and better conditions for the workers.
Ibrahim Rugova
I want to challenge the best, and I’m ready.
Canelo Alvarez
As long as I keep it real, I learn something from everyone. And when you view yourself as a student and not as somebody who’s bigger, there is still learning that can be done every day, and that keeps you open-minded and more ready to learn about life and love.
J Balvin
To be ready to fail is to be prepared for success.
Jose Bergamin
Your team has to understand that coming into the ABA, you have to have your investments right and sponsorships and people ready to give you money so they can back you up.
Tim Hardaway
