![Readiness For Quotes By Lord Kelvin Readiness For Quotes By Lord Kelvin](https://quotessayings.net/pics/readiness-for-quote-by-lord-kelvin-1451729.jpg)
Simplification of modes of proof is not merely an indication of advance in our knowledge of a subject, but is also the surest guarantee of readiness for farther progress. — Lord Kelvin

Even though this deity (the Christian God with a capital "G") has evolved through its 2000 years, it somehow maintains in its current version all old characteristics, whether conflicting or consistent: readiness to punish but ability to heal, vindictiveness yet forgiveness, utter cruelty to outside nonbelievers but looking for converts, etc. — Thomas Daniel Nehrer
![Readiness For Quotes By Eric Hoffer Readiness For Quotes By Eric Hoffer](https://quotessayings.net/pics/readiness-for-quote-by-eric-hoffer-424600.jpg)
The vigor of a mass movement stems from the propensity of its followers for united action and self-sacrifice. When we ascribe the success of a movement to its faith, doctrine, propaganda, leadership, ruthlessness and so on, we are but referring to instruments of unification and to means used to inculcate a readiness for self-sacrifice. — Eric Hoffer
![Readiness For Quotes By Umberto Eco Readiness For Quotes By Umberto Eco](https://quotessayings.net/pics/readiness-for-quote-by-umberto-eco-298172.jpg)
Man's principle trait is a readiness to believe anything. Otherwise, how could the Church have survived for almost two thousand years in the absense of universal gullibility? — Umberto Eco
![Readiness For Quotes By Peter Julian Eymard Readiness For Quotes By Peter Julian Eymard](https://quotessayings.net/pics/readiness-for-quote-by-peter-julian-eymard-504226.jpg)
When later he [St. Joseph] carried the Child in his arms, acts of loving faith welled up constantly in his heart. It was a worship that pleased our Lord more than that which he receives in heaven. Picture to yourself Saint Joseph, adoring the little Child in his arms as his God. He tells of his readiness to die for Christ, of all his plans to promote Christ's glory, and to win more souls to his love. No lover builds more scintillating plans for his loved one than a saint. — Peter Julian Eymard
![Readiness For Quotes By Abdu'l- Baha Readiness For Quotes By Abdu'l- Baha](https://quotessayings.net/pics/readiness-for-quote-by-abdul-baha-1302773.jpg)
In the beginning of his human life man was embryonic in the world of the matrix. There he received capacity and endowment for the reality of human existence. The forces and powers necessary for this world were bestowed upon him in that limited condition. In this world he needed eyes; he received them potentially in the other. He needed ears; he obtained them there in readiness and preparation for his new existence. The powers requisite in this world were conferred upon him in the world of the matrix. — Abdu'l- Baha
![Readiness For Quotes By Marina Tsvetaeva Readiness For Quotes By Marina Tsvetaeva](https://quotessayings.net/pics/readiness-for-quote-by-marina-tsvetaeva-124009.jpg)
What is this gypsy passion for separation, this
readiness to rush off when we've just met?
My head rests in my hands as I
realize, looking into the night
that no one turning over our letters has
yet understood how completely and
how deeply faithless we are, which is
to say: how true we are to ourselves. — Marina Tsvetaeva
![Readiness For Quotes By Dwight D. Eisenhower Readiness For Quotes By Dwight D. Eisenhower](https://quotessayings.net/pics/readiness-for-quote-by-dwight-d-eisenhower-553787.jpg)
There is a kind of dictatorship that can come about through a creeping paralysis of thought, readiness to accept paternalistic measures by government, and along with those measures comes a surrender of our own responsibilities and therefore a surrender of our own thought over our own lives and our own right to exercise the vote. The free system gives the right to every citizen to do something for himself. Because he has the right, the opportunity is always there. — Dwight D. Eisenhower
![Readiness For Quotes By Adolf Hitler Readiness For Quotes By Adolf Hitler](https://quotessayings.net/pics/readiness-for-quote-by-adolf-hitler-942985.jpg)
Our strength consists in our speed and in our brutality. Genghis Khan led millions of women and children to slaughter - with premeditation and a happy heart. History sees in him solely the founder of a state. It's a matter of indifference to me what a weak western European civilization will say about me. I have issued the command - and I'll have anybody who utters but one word of criticism executed by a firing squad - that our war aim does not consist in reaching certain lines, but in the physical destruction of the enemy. Accordingly, I have placed my death-head formation in readiness - for the present only in the East - with orders to them to send to death mercilessly and without compassion, men, women, and children of Polish derivation and language. Only thus shall we gain the living space (Lebensraum) which we need. Who, after all, speaks to-day of the annihilation of the Armenians? — Adolf Hitler
![Readiness For Quotes By Georgy Zhukov Readiness For Quotes By Georgy Zhukov](https://quotessayings.net/pics/readiness-for-quote-by-georgy-zhukov-925663.jpg)
The nature of encounter operations required of the commanders limitless initiative and constant readiness to take the responsibility for military actions. — Georgy Zhukov
![Readiness For Quotes By F Scott Fitzgerald Readiness For Quotes By F Scott Fitzgerald](https://quotessayings.net/pics/readiness-for-quote-by-f-scott-fitzgerald-192151.jpg)
This responsiveness had nothing to do with that flabby impressionability which is dignified under the name of the 'creative temperament' - it was an extraordinary gift for hope, a romantic readiness such as I have never found in any other person and which it is not likely I shall ever find again. No - Gatsby turned out all right at the end; it is what — F Scott Fitzgerald
![Readiness For Quotes By Michel Foucault Readiness For Quotes By Michel Foucault](https://quotessayings.net/pics/readiness-for-quote-by-michel-foucault-1195169.jpg)
Curiosity evokes 'concern'; it evokes the care one takes for what exists and could exist; a readiness to find strange and singular what surrounds us; a certain relentlessness to break up our familiarities and to regard otherwise the same things; a fervor to grasp what is happening and what passes; a casualness in regard to the traditional hierarchies of the important and the essential. I dream of a new age of curiosity. We have the technical means for it; the desire is there; the things to be known are infinite; the people who can employ themselves at this task exist. Why do we suffer? From too little: from the channels that are too narrow, skimpy, quasi-monopolistic, insufficient. There is no point in adopting a protectionist attitude, to prevent 'bad' information from invading and suffocating the 'good.' Rather, we must multiply the paths and the possibility of comings and goings. — Michel Foucault
![Readiness For Quotes By Eric Ries Readiness For Quotes By Eric Ries](https://quotessayings.net/pics/readiness-for-quote-by-eric-ries-756829.jpg)
In School of One, students have daily "playlists" of their learning tasks that are attuned to each student's learning needs, based on that student's readiness and learning style. For example, Julia is way ahead of grade level in math and learns best in small groups, so her playlist might include three or four videos matched to her aptitude level, a thirty-minute one-on-one tutoring session with her teacher, and a small group activity in which she works on a math puzzle with three peers at similar aptitude levels. There are assessments built into each activity so that data can be fed back to the teacher to choose appropriate tasks for the next playlist. — Eric Ries
![Readiness For Quotes By Krista Tippett Readiness For Quotes By Krista Tippett](https://quotessayings.net/pics/readiness-for-quote-by-krista-tippett-1145380.jpg)
Spiritual humility is not about getting small, not about debasing oneself, but about approaching everything and everyone else with a readiness to see goodness and to be surprised. This is the humility of a child, which Jesus lauded. It is the humility of the scientist and the mystic. It has a lightness of step, not a heaviness of heart. That lightness is the surest litmus test I know for recognizing wisdom when you see it in the world or feel its stirrings in yourself. — Krista Tippett
![Readiness For Quotes By Richard Rodriguez Readiness For Quotes By Richard Rodriguez](https://quotessayings.net/pics/readiness-for-quote-by-richard-rodriguez-524699.jpg)
Most, I loved James Baldwin's essays. There was to a Baldwin essay a metropolitan elegance I envied, a refusal of the livid. In Baldwin I found a readiness to rise to prophetic wrath, something like those ministers, and yet, once more, to bend down in tenderness, to call grown men and women "baby" (a whiff of the theater). Watching Baldwin on television - I will always consider the fifties to have been a sophisticated time - fixed for me what being a writer must mean. Arching eyebrows intercepted ironies, parenthetically declared fouls; mouthfuls of cigarette smoke shot forth ribbons of exactitude. — Richard Rodriguez
![Readiness For Quotes By Eric Hoffer Readiness For Quotes By Eric Hoffer](https://quotessayings.net/pics/readiness-for-quote-by-eric-hoffer-849176.jpg)
All mass movements generate in their adherents a readiness to die and a proclivity for united action; all of them, irrespective of the doctrine they preach and the program they project, breed fanaticism, enthusiasm, fervent hope, hatred and intolerance; all of them are capable of releasing a powerful flow of activity in certain departments of life; all of them demand blind faith and singlehearted allegiance. — Eric Hoffer
![Readiness For Quotes By David Richo Readiness For Quotes By David Richo](https://quotessayings.net/pics/readiness-for-quote-by-david-richo-1452848.jpg)
Fate often allows a future to take shape with no regard for our expectation, plan, or readiness. Fate's skillful editing of our life choices is like the careful grooming of lads on their first day of school: combed, polished, scrubbed, newly dressed, and glowing too. This is how we become ready for our life lessons. — David Richo
![Readiness For Quotes By George Eliot Readiness For Quotes By George Eliot](https://quotessayings.net/pics/readiness-for-quote-by-george-eliot-226788.jpg)
But let the wise be warned against too great readiness at explanation: it multiplies the sources of mistake, lengthening the sum for reckoners sure to go wrong. — George Eliot
![Readiness For Quotes By Dietrich Bonhoeffer Readiness For Quotes By Dietrich Bonhoeffer](https://quotessayings.net/pics/readiness-for-quote-by-dietrich-bonhoeffer-1331397.jpg)
To be sure, God shall call you, and us, only at the hour that God has chosen. Until that hour, which lies in God's hand alone, we shall be protected even in the greatest danger; and from our gratitude for such protection ever new readiness surely arises for the final call — Dietrich Bonhoeffer
![Readiness For Quotes By Rebecca Solnit Readiness For Quotes By Rebecca Solnit](https://quotessayings.net/pics/readiness-for-quote-by-rebecca-solnit-346112.jpg)
But the real difficulties, the real arts of survival, seem to lie in more subtle realms. There, what's called for is a kind of resilience of the psyche, a readiness to deal with what comes next. These captives lay out in a stark and dramatic way what goes on in every life: the transitions whereby you cease to be who you were. — Rebecca Solnit
![Readiness For Quotes By Dean Koontz Readiness For Quotes By Dean Koontz](https://quotessayings.net/pics/readiness-for-quote-by-dean-koontz-1063941.jpg)
Their perpetual readiness for play is endearing, and their willingness to forgive deception time after time is one of the key differences between the heart of a dog and the human heart. Trixie — Dean Koontz
![Readiness For Quotes By Phyllis Schlafly Readiness For Quotes By Phyllis Schlafly](https://quotessayings.net/pics/readiness-for-quote-by-phyllis-schlafly-900278.jpg)
History offers no evidence for the proposition that the assignment of women to military combat jobs is the way to win wars, improve combat readiness, or promote national security. — Phyllis Schlafly
![Readiness For Quotes By Elizabeth Samet Readiness For Quotes By Elizabeth Samet](https://quotessayings.net/pics/readiness-for-quote-by-elizabeth-samet-1130246.jpg)
Our national fondness for celebrating the physical heroism of soldiers - the apparent readiness with which they sacrifice their lives to larger causes - eclipses the far less romantic displays of moral and intellectual fortitude that also distinguish so many of them. In turning them all into heroes, we have lost a sense of the individuality they also fight to preserve. — Elizabeth Samet
![Readiness For Quotes By Frank Donoghue Readiness For Quotes By Frank Donoghue](https://quotessayings.net/pics/readiness-for-quote-by-frank-donoghue-1129685.jpg)
Andrew Ross makes sense of this sad artifice [decreasing academic pay] by explaining that academics of all ranks, along with artists, are uniquely willing to tolerate exploitation in the workplace. Ross claims that scholars' readiness "to accept a discounted wage out of 'love for their subject' has helped not only to sustain the cheap labor supply but also to magnify its strength and volume. Like artists and performers, academics are inclined by training to sacrifice earnings for the opportunity to exercise their craft." (p. 64) — Frank Donoghue
![Readiness For Quotes By Newell Dwight Hillis Readiness For Quotes By Newell Dwight Hillis](https://quotessayings.net/pics/readiness-for-quote-by-newell-dwight-hillis-1128674.jpg)
Failure is blindness to the strategic element in events; success is readiness for instant action when the opportune moment arrives. — Newell Dwight Hillis
![Readiness For Quotes By Nadia Hashimi Readiness For Quotes By Nadia Hashimi](https://quotessayings.net/pics/readiness-for-quote-by-nadia-hashimi-1123936.jpg)
That's what being a mother is, isn't it? Waiting for a rounded belly to tighten in readiness; listening for the sound of hunger in the moonlit hours; hearing an eager voice call even in the camouflage of traffic, loud music, and whirring machines. It's looking at every door, every phone, and every approaching silhouette and feeling that slight lift, that tickle of opportunity to be again - mother. — Nadia Hashimi
![Readiness For Quotes By Marcus Aurelius Readiness For Quotes By Marcus Aurelius](https://quotessayings.net/pics/readiness-for-quote-by-marcus-aurelius-1416470.jpg)
At day's first light have in readiness, against disinclination to leave your bed, the thought that "I am rising for the work of man." — Marcus Aurelius
![Readiness For Quotes By Marcel Proust Readiness For Quotes By Marcel Proust](https://quotessayings.net/pics/readiness-for-quote-by-marcel-proust-1088897.jpg)
My aunt must have been perfectly well aware that she would not see Swann again, that she would never leave her own house any more, but this ultimate seclusion seemed to be accepted by her with all the more readiness for the very reason which, to our minds, ought to have made it more unbearable; namely, that such a seclusion was forced upon her by the gradual and steady diminution in her strength which she was able to measure daily, which, by making every action, every movement 'tiring' to her if not actually painful, gave to inaction, isolation and silence the blessed, strengthening and refreshing charm of repose. — Marcel Proust
![Readiness For Quotes By Eric Hoffer Readiness For Quotes By Eric Hoffer](https://quotessayings.net/pics/readiness-for-quote-by-eric-hoffer-1417781.jpg)
There is probably an element of malice in our readiness to overestimate people - we are, as it were, laying up for ourselves the pleasure of later cutting them down to size. — Eric Hoffer
![Readiness For Quotes By Eric Hoffer Readiness For Quotes By Eric Hoffer](https://quotessayings.net/pics/readiness-for-quote-by-eric-hoffer-1074893.jpg)
We are ready to die for an opinion but not for a fact: indeed, it is by our readiness to die that we try to prove the factualness of our opinion. — Eric Hoffer
![Readiness For Quotes By Paul Tough Readiness For Quotes By Paul Tough](https://quotessayings.net/pics/readiness-for-quote-by-paul-tough-1353988.jpg)
The capacities that develop in the earliest years may be harder to measure on tests of kindergarten readiness than abilities like number and letter recognition, but they are precisely the skills, closely related to executive functions, that researchers have recently determined to be so valuable in kindergarten and beyond: the ability to focus on a single activity for an extended period, the ability to understand and follow directions, the ability to cope with disappointment and frustration, the ability to interact capably with other students. — Paul Tough

13Therefore p take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in q the evil day, and having done all, to stand firm. 14Stand therefore, r having fastened on the belt of truth, and s having put on the breastplate of righteousness, 15and, t as shoes for your feet, having put on the readiness given by the gospel of peace. 16In all circumstances take up u the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all v the flaming darts of w the evil one; 17and take s the helmet of salvation, and x the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God, 18praying y at all — Anonymous
![Readiness For Quotes By Marcia Clark Readiness For Quotes By Marcia Clark](https://quotessayings.net/pics/readiness-for-quote-by-marcia-clark-1055950.jpg)
Now I am practicing as well as a criminal defense lawyer in handling appeals. The court of appeals appointed me to handle cases and although that's not trial work and I don't have to go to court, it kind of satisfies the need I have to practice still and I have transitioned into readiness not to be in trial anymore. It took a little while for me to get used to not doing it and I did miss it for a few years, but eventually I transferred into another life. — Marcia Clark
![Readiness For Quotes By Ike Skelton Readiness For Quotes By Ike Skelton](https://quotessayings.net/pics/readiness-for-quote-by-ike-skelton-1024085.jpg)
Today nearly every combat brigade located within the United States would report that they are not ready for duty. They are at the lowest levels of readiness. — Ike Skelton
![Readiness For Quotes By Mark Levy Readiness For Quotes By Mark Levy](https://quotessayings.net/pics/readiness-for-quote-by-mark-levy-1015023.jpg)
I ask why they picked that particular failing strategy. A common answer: They say that they heard that it was a perfect strategy, an A-strategy, for getting word out about a company. Everyone is using it. What they haven't taken into account, though, is their own disposition, talents, and resources. Their own readiness. Businesses are like individuals. What's perfect for one is awful for another. There is no such thing as an objective "A-strategy." An A-strategy is only an A-strategy if you'll execute on it. If you don't have the desire, talent, or resources to fully execute, then your B- or C-strategy should be elevated to A-strategy status. Execute on the strategy you'll perform with gusto. Gusto matters. Excitement matters. Follow-through matters. Completion matters. — Mark Levy
![Readiness For Quotes By Eric Greitens Readiness For Quotes By Eric Greitens](https://quotessayings.net/pics/readiness-for-quote-by-eric-greitens-999204.jpg)
Readiness is a form of humility, spurred by a recognition of how little we can know or control. Hardship is unavoidable. Resilient people recognize this reality. Then they prepare themselves for it, seeking to meet it as best they can, on their own terms. — Eric Greitens
![Readiness For Quotes By Nina George Readiness For Quotes By Nina George](https://quotessayings.net/pics/readiness-for-quote-by-nina-george-981442.jpg)
Hesse's Stage came to Perdu's mind. Most people were familiar with the first line, of course: "In all beginnings dwells a magic force..." but very few people know the ending: "For guarding us and helping us to live." And hardly anyone realized that Hesse wasn't talking about new beginnings. He meant a readiness to bid farewell. Farewell to old habits, Farwell to illusions. Farewell to a long-expired life, in which one was nothing but a husk, rustled by the occasional sigh. — Nina George
![Readiness For Quotes By Eckhart Tolle Readiness For Quotes By Eckhart Tolle](https://quotessayings.net/pics/readiness-for-quote-by-eckhart-tolle-1441126.jpg)
Humanity as a whole has already gone through unimaginable suffering, mostly self-inflicted, the culmination of which was the 20th century with its unspeakable horrors. This collective suffering has brought upon a readiness in many human beings for the evolutionary leap that is spiritual awakening. — Eckhart Tolle
![Readiness For Quotes By William Montgomery Watt Readiness For Quotes By William Montgomery Watt](https://quotessayings.net/pics/readiness-for-quote-by-william-montgomery-watt-1241175.jpg)
His readiness to undergo persecutions for his beliefs, the high moral character of the men who believed in him and looked up to him as leader, and the greatness of his ultimate achievement - all argue his fundamental integrity. To suppose Muhammad an impostor raises more problems than it solves. Moreover, none of the great figures of history is so poorly appreciated in the West as Muhammad — William Montgomery Watt
![Readiness For Quotes By Cheryl Zelenka Readiness For Quotes By Cheryl Zelenka](https://quotessayings.net/pics/readiness-for-quote-by-cheryl-zelenka-1312860.jpg)
And so dear church, will you trust God with your whole heart? Will you stop leaning into your own understanding? We cannot comprehend His ways for they really are much higher than our own, and His thoughts are not yet within our grasp. He will return for us, but not before every saint predestined to partake is the marriage supper has been saved. How He makes this happen is still a mystery. If it requires the death of some of His most precious and innocent of lambs, the Bride must trust His love for her and keep the oil in her lamp in a constant state of readiness. — Cheryl Zelenka

By thetest of our faith thehighest standard ofcivilization is the readiness to sacrifice for others. — David Lloyd George
![Readiness For Quotes By Abba Eban Readiness For Quotes By Abba Eban](https://quotessayings.net/pics/readiness-for-quote-by-abba-eban-1294480.jpg)
Our intention to regard the closing of the Straits as a casus belli was communicated ... to the foreign ministers of those states which had supported international navigation in the Straits in 1957 and thereafter. There can be no doubt that these warnings reached Cairo. One thing was now clear. If Nasser imposed a blockade, the explosion would ensue not from 'miscalculation', but from an open-eyed and conscious readiness for war. — Abba Eban
![Readiness For Quotes By Alice Munro Readiness For Quotes By Alice Munro](https://quotessayings.net/pics/readiness-for-quote-by-alice-munro-1292767.jpg)
My father's boots went ahead. His boots were to me as unique and familiar, as much an index to himself, as his face was. When he had taken them off they stood in a corner of the kitchen, giving off a complicated smell of manure, machine oil, caked black mud, and the ripe disintegrating material that lined their soles. They were a part of himself, temporarily discarded, waiting. They had an expression that was dogged and uncompromising, even brutal, and I thought of that as part of my father's look, the counterpart of his face, with its readiness for jokes and courtesies. Nor did that brutality surprise me; my father came back to us always, to my mother and me from places where our judgment could not follow. — Alice Munro

And it is through strife and the readiness for strife that a man or a nation must win greatness. So, let the world know that we are here and willing to pour out our blood, our treasure, our tears. And that America is ready and if need be desirous of battle — Theodore Roosevelt

The way to make a true friend is to be one. Friendship implies loyalty, esteem, cordiality, sympathy, affection, readiness to aid, to help, to stick, to fight for, if need be ... Radiate friendship and it will return sevenfold. — B.C. Forbes
![Readiness For Quotes By Marcus Aurelius Readiness For Quotes By Marcus Aurelius](https://quotessayings.net/pics/readiness-for-quote-by-marcus-aurelius-1261678.jpg)
A man should always have these two rules in readiness. First, to do only what the reason of your ruling and legislating faculties suggest for the service of man. Second, to change your opinion whenever anyone at hand sets you right and unsettles you in an opinion, but this change of opinion should come only because you are persuaded that something is just or to the public advantage, not because it appears pleasant or increases your reputation. — Marcus Aurelius

What is the good of being ready with the tongue? They who encounter men with smartnesses of speech for the most part procure themselves hatred. I know not whether he be truly virtuous, but why should he show readiness of the tongue? — Confucius

Geometry ... is of much assistance in architecture, and in particular it teaches us the use of the rule and compasses, by which especially we acquire readiness in making plans for buildings in their grounds, and rightly apply the square, the level, and the plummet. By means of optics ... the light in buildings can be drawn from fixed quarters of the sky ... Difficult questions involving symmetry are solved by means of geometrical theories and methods. — Marcus Vitruvius Pollio

That's all we can do, Jess thought. Live in readiness for whatever comes. — Kiana Davenport

The readiness to blame a dead pilot for an accident is nauseating, but it has been the tendency ever since I can remember. What pilot has not been in positions where he was in danger and
where perfect judgment would have advised against going? — Charles Lindbergh

When fear makes your choices for you, no security measures on earth will keep the things you dread from finding you. But if you can avoid avoidance - if you can choose to embrace experiences out of passion, enthusiasm, and a readiness to feel whatever arises - then nothing, nothing in all this dangerous world, can keep you from being safe. — Martha Beck
![Readiness For Quotes By Stefan Zweig Readiness For Quotes By Stefan Zweig](https://quotessayings.net/pics/readiness-for-quote-by-stefan-zweig-320152.jpg)
Being beautiful in itself, youth needs no transfiguration: in its abundance of strong life it is drawn to the tragic, and is happy to let melancholy suck sweetly from its still inexperienced bloom, and the very same phenomenon accounts for the readiness of young people to face danger and reach out a fraternal hand to all spiritual suffering — Stefan Zweig
![Readiness For Quotes By Pope Francis Readiness For Quotes By Pope Francis](https://quotessayings.net/pics/readiness-for-quote-by-pope-francis-432907.jpg)
"Do you love me?"; "Are you my friend?". The One who scrutinizes hearts (cf. Rom 8:27), makes himself a beggar of love and questions us on the one truly essential issue, a premiss and condition for feeding his sheep, his lambs, his Church. May every ministry be based on this intimacy with the Lord; living from him is the measure of our ecclesial service which is expressed in the readiness to obey, to humble ourselves, as we heard in the Letter to the Philippians, and for the total gift of self. — Pope Francis

We are so busy telling God where we would like to go. We wait with the idea of some great opportunity, something sensational, and when it comes we are quick to cry, 'Here am I.' Readiness for God means that we are ready to do the tiniest little thing or the great big thing, it makes no difference. — Oswald Chambers

The modern habit of doing ceremonial things unceremoniously is no proof of humility; rather it proves the offender's inability to forget himself in the rite, and his readiness to spoil for every one else the proper pleasure of ritual. — C.S. Lewis

When I see brokenness, poverty and crime in inner cities, I also see the enormous potential and readiness for transformation and rebirth. We are creating an art form that comes from the heart and reflects the pain and sorrow of people's lives. It also expresses joy, beauty, and love. This process lays the foundation of building a genuine community in which people are reconnected with their families, sustained by meaningful work, nurtured by the care of each other and will together raise and educate their children. Then we witness social change in action. — Lily Yeh
![Readiness For Quotes By John Piper Readiness For Quotes By John Piper](https://quotessayings.net/pics/readiness-for-quote-by-john-piper-382364.jpg)
Husbands are not Christ. But they are called to be like him. And the specific point of likeness is the husband's readiness to suffer for his wife's good without threatening or abusing her. This includes suffering to protect her from any outside forces that would harm her, as well as suffering disappointments of abuses even from her. This kind of love is possible because Christ died for both husband and wife. Their sins are forgiven. Neither needs to make the other suffer for sins. Christ has borne that suffering. Now as two sinful and forgiven people we can return good for evil. — John Piper

Waiting for God is not laziness. Waiting for God is not the abandonment of effort. Waiting for God means, first, activity under command; second, readiness for any new command that may come; third, the ability to do nothing until the command is given. — G. Campbell Morgan

Seek happiness now within you. Don't look anywhere else or for anyone to help bring that happiness to your life. Happiness comes as a reward of battles we win. Happiness will come from the will to be strong minded and the readiness to face the next challenge with a smile. — Sal Martinez

![Readiness For Quotes By Erich Fromm Readiness For Quotes By Erich Fromm](https://quotessayings.net/pics/readiness-for-quote-by-erich-fromm-353938.jpg)
Perhaps most trivial talk is a need to talk about oneself; hence, the never-ending subject of health and sickness, children, travel, successes, what one did, and the innumerable daily things that seem to be important. Since one cannot talk about oneself all the time without being thought a bore, one must exchange the privilege by a readiness to listen to others talking about themselves. Private social meetings between individuals (and often, also, meetings of all kinds of associations and groups) are little markets where one exchanges one's need to talk about oneself and one's desire to be listened to for the need of others who seek the same opportunity. Most people respect this arrangement of exchange; those who don't, and want to talk more about themselves than they are willing to listen, are "cheaters," and they are resented and have to choose inferior company in order to be tolerated. — Erich Fromm

Each of her soothing utterances battered me more grievously than the last - as if I were traveling in a perverse ambulance whose function was to collect a healthy man and steadily damage him in readiness for the hospital at which a final and terrible injury would be inflicted. — Joseph O'Neill

Readiness for action is the root of all kingly duties. Listen to the verse sung by Vrihaspati: By exertion the amrita was obtained, by exertion the asuras were slain and by exertion Indra obtained sovereignity in heaven and on earth. The heroes of exertion are superior to the heroes of speech. The heroes of speech gratify the heroes of exertion. — Meera Uberoi

And yet he was always prepared: It will end this month, he would tell himself. And then, at the end of the month: Next month. He won't want to talk to me next month. He tried to keep himself in a constant state of readiness; he tried to prepare himself for disappointment, even as he yearned to be proven wrong. — Hanya Yanagihara
![Readiness For Quotes By Francis Bacon Readiness For Quotes By Francis Bacon](https://quotessayings.net/pics/readiness-for-quote-by-francis-bacon-249405.jpg)
For myself, I found that I was fitted for nothing so well as for the study of Truth; as having a mind nimble and versatile enough to catch the resemblances of things and at the same time steady enough to fix and distinguish their subtler differences; as being gifted by nature with desire to seek, patience to doubt, fondness to meditate, slowness to assert, readiness to consider, carefulness to dispose and set in order; and as being a man that neither affects what is new nor admires what is old, and that hates every kind of imposture. -Francis Bacon — Francis Bacon
![Readiness For Quotes By Adolf Hitler Readiness For Quotes By Adolf Hitler](https://quotessayings.net/pics/readiness-for-quote-by-adolf-hitler-244616.jpg)
The readiness to sacrifice one's personal work and, if necessary, even one's life for others shows its most highly developed form in the Aryan race. The greatness of the Aryan is not based on his intellectual powers; but rather on his willingness to devote all his faculties to the service of his community. — Adolf Hitler
![Readiness For Quotes By Joseph Conrad Readiness For Quotes By Joseph Conrad](https://quotessayings.net/pics/readiness-for-quote-by-joseph-conrad-219277.jpg)
A certain readiness to perish is not so very rare, but it is seldom that you meet men whose souls, steeled in the impenetrable armour of resolution, are ready to fight a losing battle to the last, the desire of peace waxes stronger as hope declines, till at last it conquers the very desire of life. Which of us here has not observed this, or maybe experienced something of that feeling in his own person - this extreme weariness of emotions, the vanity of effort, the yearning for rest? — Joseph Conrad

For Sorel, the fact that Marx's prediction that contemporary society would increasingly divide itself into two, and no more than two, mutually hostile classes was falsified by time, could be offset by the readiness of the proletariat to remain intransigent, opposing its nonproletarian opponents with absolute determination. — A. James Gregor
![Readiness For Quotes By James Madison Readiness For Quotes By James Madison](https://quotessayings.net/pics/readiness-for-quote-by-james-madison-193950.jpg)

For men become civilized, not in proportion to their willingness to believe, but in proportion to their readiness to doubt. The more stupid the man, the larger his stock of adamantine assurances, the heavier his load of faith. — H.L. Mencken

There are two things we should always be 1. raw and 2. ready. When you are raw, you are always ready and when you are ready you usually realize that you are raw. Waiting for perfection is not an answer, one cannot say "I will be ready when I am perfect" because then you will never be ready, rather one must say "I am raw and I am ready just like this right now, how and who I am. — C. JoyBell C.

The readiness to react with fear, for instance, depends on how much fear is already present within to be triggered by a stimulus. The more fear we have on the inside, the more our perception of the world is changed to a fearful, guarded expectancy. — David R. Hawkins

In Connecticut the electoral body consisted, from its origin, of the whole number of citizens; and this is readily to be understood, *a when we recollect that this people enjoyed an almost perfect equality of fortune, and a still greater uniformity of opinions. *b In Connecticut, at this period, all the executive functionaries were elected, including the Governor of the State. *c The citizens above the age of sixteen were obliged to bear arms; they formed a national militia, which appointed its own officers, and was to hold itself at all times in readiness to march for the defence of the country. — Alexis De Tocqueville

Competitive skills are desperately needed by poor children in America, and realistic recognition of the economic roles that they may someday have an opportunity to fill is obviously important, too. But there is more to life, and there ought to be much more to childhood, than readiness for economic functions. — Jonathan Kozol

When you are in readiness, you are in wakefulness. A smile can take you there. A simple smile. Just stop everything for one moment, and smile. At nothing. Just because it feels good. Just because your heart knows a secret. And because your soul knows what the secret is. Smile at that. Smile a lot. It will cure whatever ails you. — Neale Donald Walsch

No, when it came to the ultimate and highest questions, there was no help from outside - no mediation, no absolution, no soothing consolation. Every man had to untangle the riddle on his own, had to work diligently at it, at hot speed, all by himself; before it was too late, he must either achieve some clear readiness for death, or die in despair. — Thomas Mann

For all the enlightened nations that profess a loyalty to liberty, democracy, economy and all the rest, there has long been a readiness to look for a chosen one; as Carlyle pointed out, even the French, those great anti-venerators, those relentless beheaders of Great Men, worshipped Voltaire. — Chris Anderson
![Readiness For Quotes By Albert Einstein Readiness For Quotes By Albert Einstein](https://quotessayings.net/pics/readiness-for-quote-by-albert-einstein-922467.jpg)
So long as the individual state, despite its official condemnation of war, has to consider the possibility of engaging in war, it must influence and educate its citizens - and its youth in particular - in such a way that they can easily be converted into efficient soldiers in the event of war. Therefore it is compelled not only to cultivate a technical-military training and type of thinking but also to implant a spirit of national vanity in its people in order to secure their inner readiness for the outbreak of war. — Albert Einstein

The relevant measures are not ease and difficulty. The relevant measures are readiness and unreadiness. If the time isn't right for a new idea, no power on earth can make it catch on, but if the time is right, it will sweep the world like wildfire. — Daniel Quinn
![Readiness For Quotes By Marshall McLuhan Readiness For Quotes By Marshall McLuhan](https://quotessayings.net/pics/readiness-for-quote-by-marshall-mcluhan-726237.jpg)
It is not brains or intelligence that is needed to cope with the problems with Plato and Aristotle and all of their successors to the present have failed to confront. What is needed is a readiness to undervalue the world altogether. This is only possible for a Christian ... All technologies and all cultures, ancient and modern, are part of our immediate expanse. There is hope in this diversity since it creates vast new possibilities of detachment and amusement at human gullibility and self-deception. There is no harm in reminding ourselves from time to time that the "Prince of this World" is a great P.R. man, a great salesman of new hardware and software, a great electric engineer, and a great master of the media. It is his master stroke to be not only environmental but invisible for the environmental is invincibly persuasive when ignored. — Marshall McLuhan
![Readiness For Quotes By Lawrence Durrell Readiness For Quotes By Lawrence Durrell](https://quotessayings.net/pics/readiness-for-quote-by-lawrence-durrell-681127.jpg)
In these days Melissa's absorbed and provoking gentleness had all the qualities of a rediscovered youth. Her long uncertain fingers - I used to feel them moving over my face when she thought I slept, as if to memorize the happiness we had shared. In her there was a pliancy, a resilience which was Oriental - a passion to serve. My shabby clothes - the way she picked up a dirty shirt seemed to engulf it with an overflowing solicitude; in the morning I found my razor beautifully cleaned and even the toothpaste laid upon the brush in readiness. Her care for me was a goad, provoking me to give my life some sort of shape and style that might match the simplicity of hers. Of her experiences in love she would never speak, turning from them with a weariness and distaste which suggested that they had been born of necessity rather than desire. She paid me the comlpiment of saying: "For the first time I am not afraid to be light-headed or foolish with a man". — Lawrence Durrell
![Readiness For Quotes By Ron Paul Readiness For Quotes By Ron Paul](https://quotessayings.net/pics/readiness-for-quote-by-ron-paul-607160.jpg)
The military-industrial complex corporations never complain of higher prices for bombs, planes, drones, and missiles. They benefit when prices rise and when cost overruns are covered with more money from the US Treasury. Those who profit are the greatest champions of the military readiness and armed conflict. They are represented by lobbyists who greatly influence both political parties. Corporate war profits and high union wages bring about remarkable cooperation between the two parties despite the political rhetoric suggesting passionate disagreement. And these militaristic policies are defended with patriotic zeal, and in appeals regarding our moral obligation to take care of all the world's needs and to meet our obligation to spread our "goodness" around the world. — Ron Paul
![Readiness For Quotes By Karl Popper Readiness For Quotes By Karl Popper](https://quotessayings.net/pics/readiness-for-quote-by-karl-popper-535982.jpg)
But it seems to me that what is essential to "creative" or "inventive" thinking is a combination of intense interest in some problem )and thus a readiness to try again and again) with highly critical thinking; with a readiness to attack even those presuppositions which for less critical thought determine the limits of the range from which trials (conjectures) are selected; with an imaginative freedom that allows us to see so far u nsuspected sources of error: possible prejudices in need of critical examination. — Karl Popper
