Colleges do not merely offer preparation for the future; they occupy four years of a student’s life, and an institution should do what it can to make these years absorbing and enjoyable. – Derek Bok
The literal resurrection of every soul who has lived and died on earth is a certainty, and surely one should make careful preparation for this event. A glorious resurrection should be the goal of every man and woman, for resurrection will be a reality. – Ezra Taft Benson
Retiring was hard. I’d spent 15 years doing something I loved, but when you get older everything seems to go. When I started spending too long with the physio and the doctor, I knew it was time to call it a day. But I had no preparation for being retired and I didn’t know what to do. – Daley Thompson
It’s definitely a shock to go from being 15 in high school to working. There’s no real cushion there. There’s no preparation at all. You learn by doing. – Emma Stone
Beginning runners come in all shapes, sizes and pre-existing conditions, so there’s no magic formula for determining exactly how much basic running is needed before you start speedwork. Most experts, though, recommend three or four months of preparation. – Don Kardong
As much preparation as I had made for the old man Salieri, gestures and so on, the fact is after sitting for hours, your movements are kind of slow. – F. Murray Abraham
In the first place, the preparation of the Nobel lecture which I am to give has shown me, even more clearly than I knew before, how many others share with me, often, indeed, have anticipated me, in the discoveries for which you have awarded me the prize. – Frederick Soddy
I love soup ’cause I don’t like to cook. It’s so easy to prepare, and it fills you up and gives you all the nutrients you need. It’s a well-balanced meal, but you don’t have to do a lot of preparation. – Carrie Ann Inaba
Everybody is going to be excited to play in a Super Bowl. When you still enjoy the preparation and the work part of it, I think you ought to be still doing that. I think as soon as I stop enjoying it, if I can’t produce, if I can’t help a team, that’s when I will stop playing. – Peyton Manning
I think that every artistic venture is a risk, and it has to be that way, so you do as much preparation as you can and make that as thorough as you can possibly make it, until you turn up on set. It’s about taking risks, and some might work and some might not, but that’s what makes it interesting. – Matt Smith
Non-crazy gun advocates – the ones who aren’t stockpiling in preparation for a zombie invasion – don’t like the idea of expanding background checks because they think it’ll be a lot more paperwork. And it probably would make it more difficult to sell guns at, say, a flea market. – Gail Collins
I was arrested in September 2011 and detained for nine months before I was found guilty in June 2012 under Ethiopia’s overly broad Anti-Terrorism Proclamation, which ostensibly covers the ‘planning, preparation, conspiracy, incitement and attempt’ of terrorist acts. – Eskinder Nega

I don’t just rely on my right hand when I’m in the ring. That’s the least thing I think about. I think about the preparation I’ve trained for, and I try to execute. And guys can’t stand up to the power. I’ve been blessed with that, and it’s something that can’t be taught. – Deontay Wilder
Creating a top team and being in a position to win the Tour de France will give me a nice feeling. But I know it is not easy to create a top team from zero. You need good riders, good staff, a lot of preparation and, most important, a lot of sponsors. – Fernando Alonso
When you go out onto the stage, all the preparation has to be forced into your subconscious. For the moment of the performance, we all have to return to a new level of unconsciousness. All the reflection and all the doubts have to be laid aside before you start. – Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau
Preparation is a mentality… With wrestling being my background, I’ve always learned to overwork, overwork. Work, work, work, work. It’s not always the talented that wins, but it’s the one who puts in the most preparation and thought into things. – Dominick Cruz
I’ve learned over the years that it doesn’t matter where you pitch in the rotation. For me, preparation is everything. – Cory Lidle
Running for president is hard. But it’s good preparation. Because being president is a lot harder. – Mark McKinnon
It’s that preparation that goes into each week. We have a term: ‘Trust your training, trust your teammate, and trust yourself.’ – Dan Quinn
The Middle East is more angry than ever. I’m afraid that the sort of deceit on the route to war was linked to the lack of preparation for afterwards and the chaos and suffering that continuous – so it won’t go away will it? – Clare Short
Preparation for old age should begin not later than one’s teens. A life which is empty of purpose until 65 will not suddenly become filled on retirement. – Dwight L. Moody
Thanksgiving was always a favorite holiday for me. The preparation was fun! My grandma and I would walk to the butcher on Jamaica Avenue in Queens, order the bird, and buy all the fixings at the market. – Debi Mazar
My focus in 2016 will be the IAAF World Indoor Championships in Portland, and as preparation for that, I will try to break the world indoor mile record in Stockholm on February 17. – Genzebe Dibaba
I never struggled with injury problems because of my preparation – in particular my stretching. – Edwin Moses
My preparation is mainly just knowing the lines and getting in and knowing where your character is, knowing what it’s about and having ideas that you can put in on the day. – Daniel Radcliffe
A careful analysis of the process of observation in atomic physics has shown that the subatomic particles have no meaning as isolated entities, but can only be understood as interconnections between the preparation of an experiment and the subsequent measurement. – Erwin Schrodinger
