Ready Room

Famous quotes containing the words ready and/or room:

“To be made to hold his tongue is the greatest insult you can offer him—though he might be ready with a poker to make you hold yours.”
—Mrs. Patrick Campbell (1865–1940)

“We laugh at him who steps out of his room at the very moment when the sun steps out, and says: “I will the sun to rise”; and at him who cannot stop the wheel, and says: “I will it to roll”; and at him who is taken down in a wrestling match, and says: “I lie here, but I will that I lie here!” And yet, all laughter aside, do we ever do anything other than one of these three things when we use the expression, “I will”?”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
