I don’t read as much as people may expect. In fact, sometimes I feel that I should probably read more, but then I do believe that one of the big problems of our times is that there’s too much reading and not enough thinking.
194
Set your sights high, the higher the better. Expect the most wonderful things to happen, not in the future but right now. Realize that nothing is too good. Allow absolutely nothing to hamper you or hold you up in any way.
195
Let’s say there are things about ‘G.I. Joe’ that you specifically expect and some things that need to be in the film at certain points, whether it be relationships or certain costume aspects.
196
As an actor I think sometimes producers need a little bit of encouragement to see you in a particular role, they may not have as much imagination as you would expect.
197
I do think that sometimes, especially coming into this going straight from activism to being a candidate or to being a person who potentially, you know, looks like will be holding political office soon, I think we expect our politicians to be perfect and fully formed and on point on every single issue.
198
Don’t expect any miracles, I can only come in and do what I can and give my best. I can’t work miracles but I will try to.
199
In my own experience as a physician, I have not seen a miraculous healing, and I don’t expect to see one.
200
In Camden, it’s just the atmosphere that gets me. It’s simple. It’s nice. It’s real. And it’s the people, too. I like to interact with them because they are normal and I am normal. People probably don’t expect an Arsenal player to come to Camden Lock and, basically, be a normal guy.
201
The citizens of New Hampshire expect and deserve a government as clean as our mountain streams and as open as our blue skies. Today let us pledge together to make this government – the people’s government – clean, open and honest.
202
For many years, even after Jackie Robinson, baseball was so segregated, really. You just didn’t expect us to have a chance to do anything. Baseball was meant for the lily-white.
203
The reason why people still come to Tech N9ne shows is because they never know what to expect. They know it’s gonna be something wild. From generation to generation, I’ve seen it. The parents are bringing the kids, and then the kids start comin’ themselves. It’s crazy, man.
204
When I first visited the Hospice in Milton, I had a pre-conceived idea as to what to expect. Far from being a clinical, depressing place for sick children, it was a home. Most importantly, it was a family home, a happy place of stability, support and care. It was a place of fun.
205
You have to study the people and the ones that measure up are not always the ones you expect.
206
I expect a lot. And, I hold my teammates accountable and they’ve got to hold me accountable.

208
There are women who can make you feel more with their bodies and their souls, but these are the exact women who will turn the knife into you right in front of the crowd. Of course, I expect this, but the knife still cuts.
209
I never expect to lose. Even when I’m the underdog, I still prepare a victory speech.
210
Being around some of the bright lights of the technology world and having them expect great things helps you sit down and do it seriously.
211
We are not to expect to be translated from despotism to liberty in a featherbed.
212
Government is a contrivance of human wisdom to provide for human wants. People have the right to expect that these wants will be provided for by this wisdom.
213
Gratitude is one of the greatest gifts we can give. And it’s not a gift we often give to children. We expect it of them, but we don’t necessarily give it back.
214
Expect the unexpected, is what I’d say about ‘Taboo.’
215
My father told me once not to expect anything from anybody so I wouldn’t be disappointed. If somebody was nice and did nice things for me, I should be overjoyed, but I shouldn’t go through life expecting it, which is very good advice.
216
If you are a young person who is wanting to develop a passion, you cannot expect anyone else to tell you what that passion would be.
217
There’s no doubt I expect to die in prison.
218
To all of our viewers out there – expect the unexpected.
219
People often expect that I should know a lot of things because I’m black. I don’t really explain it to people, but it’s like, I’m from Australia, my Mum’s Aussie, and I grew up with five other Aussie brothers and sisters.
220
Don’t abuse your friends and expect them to consider it criticism.
221
Well if I was going to describe my audience, it’s going to take longer than you’d ever expect, hundreds of years in fact, because there’s many of them, all over the world.
222
Even though you can’t expect to defeat the absurdity of the world, you must make the attempt. That’s morality, that’s religion, that’s art, that’s life.
223
As a DJ, people expect a certain sound and a certain danceability for the music. As a producer, I really like to let go of any rules that may exist.
224
The income from sales now covers the expense of materials but I expect this to improve.
225
We can no longer expect an Intelligence Community that is mostly male and mostly white to be able to monitor and infiltrate suspicious organizations or terrorist groups.
226
I expect there will be more private schools.
227
I didn’t know what to expect from a famous movie star; maybe that he’d be sort of stuck-up, you know. But not Gary Cooper. He horsed around so much… that I had a hard time painting him.
228
When people hear you singing songs which are done as playback, they don’t see you. But when you perform live, they expect you to be interacting with them.
229
I think, often, people who run away are people who got into things most enthusiastically, and then they want more. They just demand more of life than what is happening in the moment. Sometimes this is a great mistake, as it’s always a good deal different than you expect it.
230
Most good programmers do programming not because they expect to get paid or get adulation by the public, but because it is fun to program.
231
It is in vain to expect our prayers to be heard, if we do not strive as well as pray.
232
The big things are the things that you don’t expect.
233
Basically, at some point, one day maybe you can expect to hear some of my music. I haven’t really done that yet because my younger brother is a musician and really talented and I want him to come out with his music first.
234
This battle for ‘common-sense’ gun control laws pits emotion and passion against logic and reason. All too often in such a contest, logic loses. So, expect more meaningless, if not harmful, ‘gun control’ legislation. Good news – if you’re a crook.
235
I’ve said this time and again: My greatest concern coming into the White House was making sure my girls came out whole and normal, and decent and kind, just like I would expect them to if we were living on the South Side of Chicago. And it takes work to keep White House life normal for the kids.
236
I don’t think actors should ever expect to get a role, because the disappointment is too great. You’ve got to think of things as an opportunity. An audition’s an opportunity to have an audience.
237
One might expect that the families of murder victims would be showered with sympathy and support, embraced by their communities. But in reality they are far more likely to feel isolated, fearful, and ashamed, overwhelmed by grief and guilt, angry at the criminal-justice system, and shunned by their old friends.
238
When it comes to those who are accused and their right to defend themselves, it is perfectly reasonable to expect relevant evidence to be made public, and I am in favour of open justice.
239
Maybe the most that you can expect from a relationship that goes bad is to come out of it with a few good songs.
240
You would never expect a black woman to be the hero.
241
I deeply respect literature and expect to gain insight from a book and to identify emotionally with its characters. I therefore avoid reading suspense novels or science fiction.
242
One does not expect to be comfortable in prison. As a matter of fact, one’s mental suffering is so much greater than any common physical distress that the latter is almost forgotten.
243
The relationship between renewable energy sources and the communities we expect to host them must be appropriate and sustainable and, above all, acceptable to local people.
244
I think the most exciting thing is that you expect people our age to know the music, but actually a lot of kids know the music, and if anything is left, we have left really good music, and that’s the important part, not the mop-tops or whatever.
245
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
246
I expect to see a lot of household appliances on the Net by 2010, as well as autos and other mobile devices.

249
You know, I find it so difficult being a… as a matter of fact, little do people know that most of the leading members of the cast have a background that they would never expect them to have, and play the show they did.
250
People may expect too much of journalism. Not only do they expect it to be entertaining, they expect it to be true.
251
Man can never expect to start from scratch; he must start from ready-made things, like even his own mother and father.
252
I like being the underdog so they don’t expect what’s going to happen. It pushes me to work harder and do the things I’m not doing better.
253
If there’s no limit to how big the entropy can get, then you can start anywhere, and from that starting point, you’d expect entropy to rise as the system moves to explore larger and larger regions of phase space.
254
Should slavery be abolished there, (and it is an event, which, from these circumstances, we may reasonably expect to be produced in time) let it be remembered, that the Quakers will have had the merit of its abolition.
255
Every time I go out onto a tennis court, I know what to expect.
256
Respect your kids. They are their own people. I think sometimes we expect kids to be perfect when we’re not perfect.
257
If you can’t control your peanut butter, you can’t expect to control your life.
258
To expect for me to be one-way every time you see me is to expect me to be a one-dimensional man, which I’ve never been. I’ve always applauded my efforts to be diverse and multi-faceted.
259
I’m really not sure what people think or expect me to be, but I am surprised when people say, ‘You’re not supposed to be like that… ‘ I’m not exactly sure what ‘that’ is, so I choose to take it as a compliment.
260
Some things don’t wind up sounding like you’d expect, which is just as well.
261
We expect all our businesses to have a positive impact on our top and bottom lines. Profitability is very important to us or we wouldn’t be in this business.
262
What Australians expect of leaders is a bit of integrity.
263
I’d like to help educate kids about the Major Leagues – what to anticipate, what to expect, what they’ll need to do to prepare themselves.
264
And I don’t say that we didn’t expect it, but we were pleasantly surprised to see the generosity of their foreign policy; and the generosity of their foreign policy at that moment was expressed through the Marshall Plan.
265
I have a lifetime appointment and I intend to serve it. I expect to die at 110, shot by a jealous husband.
266
How about a little noise. How do you expect a man to putt?
267
‘Expect nothing and hope for the best’ is my mantra. A drama teacher called Joseph Blatchley told me that, and it’s the best advice I’ve had. If you keep an open mind and don’t expect too much, then you won’t be disappointed.
268
My ideas come when I least expect it, so I’ve always got to have a studio nearby or close by somewhere.
269
I’ve learned to not have expectations. If you don’t expect things from anyone, you can’t get let down.
270
People don’t work as hard as I do. They don’t expect the same things out of the game that I do.
271
Our greatness has always come from people who expect nothing and take nothing for granted – folks who work hard for what they have, then reach back and help others after them.
272
Sometimes when I try to make jokes or have a sense of humor in interviews, it doesn’t go over very well. But Twitter made my life easier in this way that I didn’t expect. It would have taken probably 10 times as long for people to accept my voice and my sense of humor if I didn’t have Twitter.
273
At first, I didn’t know what to expect but I do say that I love our defensive coordinator, Tim Lewis.
274
When you are not playing much and you expect to play more, it is normal to think of the market. That’s the modern game.
275
A poem can have an impact, but you can’t expect an audience to understand all the nuances.
276
Every time I listen to Jeff Beck my whole view of guitar changes radically. He’s way, way out, doing things you never expect.
277
Some musicians feel they have to provide what their audiences expect. They lose the distinction between an artist and an entertainer. I am not an entertainer.
278
I have never had a social life, don’t ever want one because it’s boring. I’m just not very good with people, and you meet people every night who expect you to be this rock star with these developed social skills, which I don’t have.
279
I didn’t expect babies to need so many diapers. Nobody told me they needed to be changed so often.
280
At the descriptive level, certainly, you would expect different cultures to develop different sorts of ethics and obviously they have; that doesn’t mean that you can’t think of overarching ethical principles you would want people to follow in all kinds of places.
281
Cinema seats make people lazy. They expect to be given all the information. But for me, question marks are the punctuation of life.
282
I fully expect that NASA will send me back to the moon as they treated Sen. Glenn, and if they don’t do otherwise, why, then I’ll have to do it myself.
283
I feel comfortable in saying that the traction for TotalGuide and Rovi Cloud Services is strong, and I expect it to continue to strengthen.
284
The most important problems we face are complex, and require sustained attention. But we don’t speak in terms of nuance or complexity. Is that by accident? It’s because our minds have been entrained to expect shorter and shorter bite-sized bits.
285
When you have tough times, and when you learn you can’t be perfect in every situation, it’s hard to accept, you know, because I still do expect that. But you just have to, because, you know, it’s not about the situation. It’s how you deal with it. You always have a choice.
286
You can’t go to Washington as a congressman and a senator and expect to make a difference all at once. You have to earn your way.
287
You can expect to find these four priorities – education, economic vitality, efficiency in government and the protection of families – woven into my decisions as Governor. They will serve as my compass as I work with you to chart a future course for our state.
288
The mother cannot expect her daughter to understand the mysteries of housekeeping without education. She should instruct them patiently, lovingly, and make the work as agreeable as she can by her cheerful countenance and encouraging words of approval. If they fail once, twice, or thrice, censure not.
289
Heavy handedness and entitlement goody bags are no way to solve our immigration and border crisis, but I’ve learned to expect almost nothing from the dimwits in power who feel entitled to take everything.
290
I think people expect mud at festivals, I think you’d be asking for your money back if you didn’t get it.
291
All my children have spoken for themselves since they first learned to speak, and not always with my advance approval, and I expect that to continue in the future.
292
A matter that seems to be very clear in terms of the alternative view, is what do you expect to happen in Africa with regard to immune systems, where people are poor, subject to repeat infections and all of that. Surely you would expect their immune systems to collapse.
293
The cynical part of the answer is that I expect to see a good deal more space opera, set far enough in the future as to be disconnected from contemporary issues.
294
The best piece of advice I’ve ever been given was, ‘Be in the business you’re in.’ Don’t just be a satellite around it and expect it to come to you. Be in the business you’re in.
295
Playing the good guy is tough because you know as well as I do, in real life, you have to watch your P’s and Q’s and conduct yourself in a respectable manner if you expect to have friends.
296
Our elected officials must understand that we, the American people, expect them to perform the duties of their office, even when that means working with other elected officials from different parties.
297
Without a doubt, first thing we should do is clean up our fiscal house, and that starts with balancing our budgets and digging out of this red ink. We cannot expect to continue in this fashion and remain the leader of the free world.
298
If you cannot find the truth within yourself, where else do you expect to find it?
299
To be honest with my music… for me to expect anyone to connect it has to come from a place of honesty.
300
Above all, I would not expect a wise race, at great expense, to set loose an army of self-replicating robots.
301
Every day is different; you never know what to expect, and you have to be ready to pivot on a dime.
302
Books written by boys are given very different treatment to those written by girls: they’re even given very different covers. People also expect, in this YA-booming world, girls to be less experimental than boys: girls are achieving a lot of success, but they’re confined.
303
We expect well-informed treatment for cancer or heart disease; it matters no less for depression.
304
I do expect that the President will say something at the beginning of his remarks today, at the conversation.
305
I think it’s great training for any comedian to start on cows. Because with cows, you expect them to be bored and just stare at you blankly. And that’s exactly what you’ll get at a comedy club. If you can toughen up with a cow audience, then you’ll never be worried with a human audience.
306
Portishead’s production is just insane beats you would expect to be on a KRS-One album. But then there’s this little white girl with an angel voice singing over it. It was a cool juxtaposition. I like ‘It’s A Fire.’ That’s a chill song with kind of a military drum thing going on, like a drummer boy.
307
Oregonians expect the state to prioritize the health and well-being of them and their families.
308
I expect that on the 1st of August, the SA will be once more ready for duty.
309
I have never, ever, received any taunts or any form of anti-Semitism. And I suppose being a Jewish football player with the Atlanta Falcons was no different than being a Baptist football player with the Atlanta Falcons. But in the back of your mind, you always expect something to happen.
310
Independent dance – and, fine, it’s a very good thing that it remains independent – is a much tougher life: all dancers expect that, and accept that there will be periods of not being able to work, provided there are choice moments during the year when they really can work.
311
People ought to be slapped up side of the head, not always get what they expect. That’s why sometimes the bad guy gets away.
312
My mother had a very difficult childhood, having seen her own mother kill herself. So she didn’t always know how to be the nurturing mother that we all expect we should have.
313
I’m more interested in books than people, and I always expect everybody else to be, but they’re not.
314
I knew Secrets and Lies was a great film, but I didn’t expect it to get the attention it did because none of his other films had and I thought they were just as good.
315
Life’s not fair. Don’t expect it to be.
316
Get more women producers, writers, directors. Why should we expect men to do it for us? They can’t.
317
It’s probably foolish to expect relationships to go on forever and to say that because something only lasts 10 years, it’s a failure.
318
Unfortunately, your reputation often rests not on your ability to do what you say, but rather on your ability to do what people expect.
319
I was poor. When you’re poor you work, and when you’re rich you expect somebody to hand it to you. So I think being reasonably poor is very good for people.
320
As everyone knows, things change in pro wrestling all the time. To try and expect what’s going to happen in the future is just foolish to me.
321
If you’re understood in maybe, I don’t know, 60% of your soul by your partner, that’s fantastic. Don’t expect that it’s going to be 100%. Of course you will be lonely.
322
In my opinion the greatest advantage we can at present expect from our Navy; for at this early period We can not expect to have a Navy to cope with the British.
323
To think straight, it is advisable to expect all qualities and attributes, adjectives, and so on to refer to at least two sets of interactions in time.
324
You never know what’s going to happen sometimes, or what you think’s going to happen never happens, or when you least expect it, the Santana record comes along and just blows up.
325
What is ominous is the ease with which some people go from saying that they don’t like something to saying that the government should forbid it. When you go down that road, don’t expect freedom to survive very long.
326
I think some of the pressure comes from the expectations of other people. Like if your father played baseball, they expect you to be the big lifesaver or something when you play a sport.
327
Wickets are like wives. You never know what to expect from them.
328
Geez, I wish I could tell you I had a whole bunch of ’80s hair bands, you know something you really wouldn’t expect, but I don’t know that the music police would be that surprised, because most of the stuff that I am influenced by is in evidence in the music.
329
Anytime someone expects something from me, I expect about five times more from myself.
330
Each of us has about 40 chances to accomplish our goals in life. I learned this first through agriculture, because all farmers can expect to have about 40 growing seasons, giving them just 40 chances to improve on every harvest.
331
I don’t expect that we’re going to become the biggest craze. If it happened, I’d be really shocked. I think people will dig it, but there will be a sea of people who just don’t get it.
332
It seems to me that more and more we’ve come to expect less and less from each other, and I think that should change.
333
People are lucky and unlucky not according to what they get absolutely, but according to the ratio between what they get and what they have been led to expect.
334
The fight for equal rights or pay has become this thing where people expect actresses to talk about it. Why they feel that a man is worth more is an important issue to discuss – we are moving in the right direction, but we need to continue to talk about it and continue to label it as an issue.
335
These are estimates that are done by the experts as to how much they expect we could get from the first lease sale that would take place in ANWR, and the estimate is about $2.5 billion.
336
When I moved to Orlando, it was my first time moving from Cleveland. You never know what to expect. But to be able to go and work with Shawn Michaels and learn from him – it’s just mind-blowing.
337
When I was working on the first ‘Dark Souls’ – as far back as ‘Demon’s Souls,’ actually – I didn’t expect the player community to come up with speedrun contests or any of the strange new ways to play the games.
338
Nothing ever turns out the way people expect it to.
339
When I appear in public people expect me to neigh, grind my teeth, paw the ground and swish my tail – none of which is easy.
340
Not everything happens when you expect it; it is what it is. The people who ride with you, ride with you.
341
My songs have always been frustrating themes, relationships that I’ve had. And now that I’m in love, I expect it to be really happy, or at least there won’t be half as much anger as there was.
342
However many blessings we expect from God, His infinite liberality will always exceed all our wishes and our thoughts.
343
I’ve always been very determined to do things my own way and people can expect that from me.
344
It’s kinda weird sometimes going on tour with bands because you never really know what to expect.
345
I’ve always voted Republican because America is exactly that, a republic. You can’t expect much leadership with a Democrat behind the desk their not even close to dual efficient.
346
When I moved to Bombay, it was very harsh. I was nothing like what I am today. I couldn’t speak a word of English. In England, people might be very understanding about that, but in Bombay, they’re not very forgiving. ‘If you don’t speak English, how do you expect to work in Hindi films?’
347
Everybody has a different journey. Everybody has a different path, and you don’t really know what to expect. All you know is to just keep plugging away, and you hope something will come through and something will happen.
348
Always expect the unexpected. Right around Thanksgiving, when the new Alex Cross will be out. It’s called Four Blind Mice and it’s a pretty amazing story about several murders inside the military.
349
Let us with caution indulge the supposition that morality can be maintained without religion. Reason and experience both forbid us to expect that national morality can prevail in exclusion of religious principle.
350
I don’t just want to go out there and do my job – I want to excel at it. I hold myself to a high standard. I expect to make plays that alter the game, and if I don’t, I hold myself accountable.
351
This weird thing happens when you’re in a movie that has some level of success. People start offering you all kinds of things, and they just expect you to do them because they’ll be good for your career. It’s not about the project’s integrity or anything like that.
352
I don’t think about becoming a head coach. I really don’t. I’m not oblivious of people who mention it. When you are in any business, people expect to aspire to the top. I guess everyone is supposed to aspire to being the man at the top of the heap. But I never have.
353
I had to have my first kiss in front of, like, a hundred people. I didn’t know what to do. So my sisters told me to, like, practice on a pillow, you know? But it didn’t kiss me back so I didn’t know what to expect.
354
The greatest humiliation in life, is to work hard on something from which you expect great appreciation, and then fail to get it.
355
My mother used to always say to me, ‘Do naught, get naught.’ It’s an adage that I hold by. If you don’t do anything, you can’t really expect anything.
356
It’s a pretty crazy adrenaline rush because I feel like every run is different. You can never really expect anything. It’s like a new adventure every time you drop into the pipe.
357
They’re getting more and more experience on what to expect, and the Hellboy audience is such a faithful and fanatic audience as I am, and you have to really be very open about what you do.
358
I’ve put all the hours in and there’s a depth to my education. There are a couple of brain cells in there, more than you might expect of a 6ft 1in ginger skinhead.
359
Sometimes we let life guide us, and other times we take life by the horns. But one thing is for sure: no matter how organized we are, or how well we plan, we can always expect the unexpected.
360
But actually, I’m planning on moving to New York this year and I can tell you one reason why I think New York is incredible: I think things happen to you that you don’t expect have happen to you.
361
Things we do not expect, happen more frequently than we wish.
362
We tend to get what we expect.
363
It is important to expect nothing, to take every experience, including the negative ones, as merely steps on the path, and to proceed.
364
In other words, don’t expect to always be great. Disappointments, failures and setbacks are a normal part of the lifecycle of a unit or a company and what the leader has to do is constantly be up and say ‘we have a problem, let’s go and get it’.
365
Plan for this world as if you expect to live forever; but plan for the hereafter as if you expect to die tomorrow.
366
I happen to go for the simplest, most ordinary things. The extraordinary doesn’t interest me. I’m not interested in psychotics. I’m interested in the person you don’t expect to have a story. I like Everyman.
367
Be tough. As a big guy, it’s what your teammates expect from you, to be strong. Set good screens offensively and box out at the other end. It’s a simple technique. I learned it when I was little.
368
Climate is what we expect, weather is what we get.
369
Here is the simple but powerful rule… always give people more than they expect to get.
370
We expect teachers to handle teenage pregnancy, substance abuse, and the failings of the family. Then we expect them to educate our children.
371
I don’t expect to see them in the top six but I think of all the teams that have come up in previous seasons, I think Manchester City are the biggest club.
372
At the core, one of my original goals is to redefine what the streets expect.
373
Once you know what to expect, it gets easier and easier. And now I know what I have to do to prepare for each season and what to expect through each season.
374
Whoever conquers a free town and does not demolish it commits a great error and may expect to be ruined himself.
375
I don’t look at it like that’s my rival and I have to beat her. It’s more like, I have to ski this as fast as I can and the fastest of everyone out here and that’s what I expect.
376
You might as well expect rivers to run backwards as any man born free to be contented penned up.
377
Certainly paleontologists have found samples of an extremely small fraction, only, of the earth’s extinct species, and even for groups that are most readily preserved and found as fossils they can never expect to find more than a fraction.
378
Where there is an observatory and a telescope, we expect that any eyes will see new worlds at once.

Too many people expect wonders from democracy, when the most wonderful thing of all is just having it.
381
In a bar, you never know what to expect. A place could be packed, but there might only be five girls there.
382
I think it’s a little much to expect the organisation to solve the problem of racial parity. We do see a fast-increasing influx of Asians, black folks. I actually see black folks out here, unlike some of our liberal critics.
383
The follow your dreams thing is really important because so many people are railroaded into taking other paths by their family, their friends, people who should be supportive going, ‘What are you talking about?’ Even just seemingly regular career paths, but if it’s not what people expect for you they kind of react funny.
384
We think we know what it’s all about; we think that disability is a really simple thing, and we don’t expect to see disabled people in our daily lives.
385
Every man should make up his own mind that if he expect to succeed, he must give an honest return for the other man’s dollar.
386
I hate the idea of theatre just being an evening pastime. It should be emotionally and intellectually demanding. I love football. The level of analysis that you listen to on the terraces is astonishing. If people did that in the theatre… but they don’t. They expect to sit back and not participate.
387
The opportunity to declare a truth may come when we least expect it. Let us be prepared.
388
I’ve always loved the idea of not being what people expect me to be.
389
When I pick up a book that’s, you know, wreathed in laurels, I expect a lot, and that doesn’t give the book its best chance to shine.
390
People often argue about this. Obviously one of the skills in performance is acting, and you can’t expect every Romeo to really be in love with their Juliet!
391
There are eleven million Jews in the world. I don’t say that all of them will come here, but I expect several million, and with natural increase I can quite imagine a Jewish state of ten million.

The problem with living in a fast-food nation is that we expect food to be cheap.
393
Life in a box is better than no life at all… I expect.
394

395
I came in with Halley’s Comet in 1835. It is coming again next year, and I expect to go out with it. It will be the greatest disappointment of my life if I don’t go out with Halley’s Comet. The Almighty has said, no doubt: ‘Now here are these two unaccountable freaks; they came in together, they must go out together.’
396
It is wrong to expect a reward for your struggles. The reward is the act of struggle itself, not what you win.
397
I do have a library of events I can talk about and I always expect to find a different point of view on it so even if I talk about the same event in the same town it’s fresh.
398
I expect the Republicans will enjoy a large bounce out of their convention. They’re here wrapping themselves in the 9/11 flag, which I think is inappropriate in many ways, but it’s their choice.
399
It is reasonable to expect the doctor to recognize that science may not have all the answers to problems of health and healing.
400
You can’t just carry everyone else’s hopes and fears around in your backpack and expect to stand up straight.
401
We’re all in the service business. If you hire me to do a job I expect everybody else to be where I am. A little bit of crazy is good. It keeps things – balanced.
402
They that will not apply new remedies must expect new evils.
403
Those who’ll play with cats must expect to be scratched.
404
I didn’t expect anything crazy to happen from ‘True Detective.’
405
Certainly other things we can do, we gotta promote after-school employment, give kids an opportunity, raising the minimum wage was part of that, we can’t expect that young people are going to feel they can make a living out there for such low wages.
406
I don’t expect you’ll hear me writing any poems to the greater glory of Ronald and Nancy Reagan.
407
And I don’t expect anyone can bring about a revolution in the way that Bob Dylan did – and really didn’t – in the 1960s.
408
Stanley Kubrick, I had been told, hates interviews. It’s hard to know what to expect of the man if you’ve only seen his films. One senses in those films painstaking craftsmanship, a furious intellect at work, a single-minded devotion.
409
We must teach our children to be kinder, we must examine our own biases and be better, we must expect more of each other and our elected leaders, and most importantly, we must demand policies that focus on progress and dismantle structures that disadvantage.
410
In some extremely important ways, people are what you expect them to be, or at least they behave as you expect them to behave.
411
Alfred Nobel was much concerned, as are we all, with the tangible benefits we hope for and expect from physiological and medical research, and the Faculty of the Caroline Institute has ever been alert to recognize practical benefits.
412
I’m certain that most couples expect to find intimacy in marriage, but it somehow eludes them.
413
I think that Trinity’s just the greatest character that I could ever play. I don’t expect to ever play another woman that wonderful. I have a lot of Trinity in me, for sure.
414
I think it was just an opera. Now, you go to opera, you expect to see and hear what the opera is. So, it was Catfish Row. It was singers. Marvelous voices. It didn’t make no difference what color they were.
415
I had learned something of Miami from people who had visited there, so I knew what to expect.
416
I do know this: God does answer your prayers, but it’s not always in the way you expect. God knows what’s best for us, though, so there’s no need to worry when things don’t go how we originally wanted them to go.
417
I can’t change the past, and I don’t think I would. I don’t expect to be understood. I like what I’ve written, the stories and two novels. If I had to give up what I’ve written in order to be clear of this disease, I wouldn’t do it.
418
As a player, sometimes you expect something to happen every time the ball is in the box. Every time somebody falls down, you get nervous because you have to watch your back because anything can happen.
419
I used to think about how nice it would be to visit the planets. Of course, I didn’t expect to see in my lifetime what has happened. I knew it would happen some day, but it came along faster than I at first thought.
420
I expected to die. At no time before the trial did I expect to escape with my life. Yet being executed in the gas chamber did not necessarily mean defeat. It could be one more step to bring the community to a higher level of consciousness.
421
If I am who I am, I’m provocative, candid, and androgynous; there’s nothing I can do that will make any fan think, ‘I didn’t expect that from her.’
422
Clients do not expect the infrastructure to be any less reliable just because the service is being delivered from an offshore location; thus, the uptime requirements justify the expense.
423
The very nature of science is discoveries, and the best of those discoveries are the ones you don’t expect.
424
I often feel I’m a disappointment to people because they expect me to be the guy in the books. When I sit next to someone at a dinner party I can see they expect me to be quick and witty, and I’m not at all.
425
Expect the best. Prepare for the worst. Capitalize on what comes.
426
When I came into movies or acted in ‘Njandukalude Natil Oridavela’ and ‘Mayaanadhi,’ little did I expect such a huge response from the crowd. All I expected was to work with good filmmakers.
427
I demand more of myself than anyone else could ever expect.
428
When you get into statistical analysis, you don’t really expect to achieve fame. Or to become an Internet meme. Or be parodied by ‘The Onion’ – or be the subject of a cartoon in ‘The New Yorker.’ I guess I’m kind of an outlier there.
429
But I guess the lesson is this: If you don’t have confidence in yourself and think that you are worth hiring, or whatever it is, you can’t expect anyone else to.
430
I honestly didn’t expect this much attention, but it just keeps happening so I must be doing something right.
431
I feel like people are expecting me to fail; therefore, I expect myself to win.
432
If you look at the automobile in many countries, there is a certified pre-owned market for Lexus, BMW, and many other brands. When you buy a high-end smartphone, you can expect the same kind of a situation there.
433
We’re these guys that are very tech-savvy, so people tend to expect us to say our favorite gadgets are thing like the latest iPhone or the latest app or something like that. Adam is pretty much like that. As far as myself, I’m the kind of guy that tends to go for the absolute simplest things.
434
We look at the world and see what we have learned to believe is there. We have been conditioned to expect… but, as photographers, we must learn to relax our beliefs.
435

436
When I was in prep school, an English teacher said to me, ‘Hemingway, I expect more from you!’ And I said, ‘Why, sir?’
437
When a torrent sweeps a man against a boulder, you must expect him to scream, and you need not be surprised if the scream is sometimes a theory.
438
Because women are more than the people who raise our children, they are fantastic leaders in their own rights in our community, and we want to give them the same safe environment, as we would expect.
439
Zumba is world-wide, respected and it’s about health. It’s something that you really didn’t expect from me. People have been blown away to find out that Zumba and I have partnered up.
440
Lower your expectations of earth. This isn’t heaven, so don’t expect it to be.
441

442
We love to expect, and when expectation is either disappointed or gratified, we want to be again expecting.
443
The meaning of this observation is unclear, but it raises the unfortunate possibility of ambiguous triplets; that is, triplets which may code more than one amino acid. However one would certainly expect such triplets to be in a minority.
444
I mean, you’ve kind of got the track down, especially with ovals. The only thing that improves is that when race conditions come, you know what to expect slightly more from the track and from your car.
445
We do not want to be giving quality sides such as Southampton, Palace, Norwich and the rest eight or nine points start and expect to get back up with them.
446
Economists have allowed themselves to walk into a trap where we say we can forecast, but no serious economist thinks we can. You don’t expect dentists to be able to forecast how many teeth you’ll have when you’re 80. You expect them to give good advice and fix problems.
447
Every American has the duty to obey the law and the right to expect that the law will be enforced.
448
South African literature is a literature in bondage. It is a less-than-fully-human literature. It is exactly the kind of literature you would expect people to write from prison.
449
Societies or companies that expect a glorious past to shield them from the forces of change driven by advancing technology will fail and fall. That applies as much to my own, the media industry, as to every other business on the planet.
450
Viewers can’t expect TV to keep developing unless they make their wants known. And let’s face it. The best way to make your wants known in this world is by ‘beefing’.
451
In the future, I expect to see bitcoin mining in places where electricity is free or cheap. You could put solar array in the Arizona desert attached to bitcoin miners, and instead of trying to ship that electricity all over world, you could ship Bitcoin all over the world.
452
Unlike what people assume, it is more challenging when you work with people whom you are comfortable with, because they know what you are coming up with, and hence, they expect you to deliver something new or different.
453
To expect the world to receive a new truth, or even an old truth, without challenging it, is to look for one of those miracles which do not occur.

455
People expect a lot for me now, and I will achieve that.

459

460
I’ll fight you, and I’ll have respect at the end. If you win, I have respect; if I win, I expect respect, Ray Mercer, man, I don’t want to mention this guy’s name anymore. He gets no respect from me. He was not professional, and he showed poor sportsmanship.
461
It was by a Maryland colonel in the year 1777 that the British received, in the gallant defense of an important fort, one of the first lessons of what they were to expect from American valor and patriotism.

467
It is not from the benevolence of the butcher, the brewer, or the baker that we expect our dinner, but from their regard to their own interest.
468

Rwanda has emerged from the devastation of genocide and become more secure and prosperous than anyone had a right to expect.

476
I expect to win. I’ve never been content with anything I’ve ever done.
477
Never expect a loan to a friend to be paid back if you want to keep that friend.
478
You should see my stepdad’s face when he’s lifting something. It’s the scariest thing I’ve ever seen! So you can’t expect, just because I’m a potentially pretty person, that I won’t allow myself to try out emotional states that might make me look ugly to some people.
479
People will listen to a song and expect that you just have that persona on all the time. But really, that was your one outlet that one day to get that emotion out. The only difference was you put it on a canvas that’s going to be there forever.
480
The Imperial German Government will not expect the Government of the United States to omit any word or any act necessary to the performance of its sacred duty of maintaining the rights of the United States and its citizens and of safeguarding their free exercise and enjoyment.
481
QTE is a very strange thing… it really depends on what you expect from your game experience.

483
I expect VA’s inspector general and the FBI to work closely together so that we can identify and eliminate the flaws that allowed this leak and prosecute any criminal acts.
484
I don’t expect to win every battle but I think Fred Pierce has enough respect for me that I can go fight my battles and win my share.
485
I view Bitcoin as the more democratic version of money and value transfer because no one controls it… I expect the Internet to be around longer than any nation-state, so a nation-state-backed currency is actually less safe than an Internet currency in my mind.
486
I think that the same kind of openness and fluidity and willingness to interrogate power that we, as feminists, expect from men in alliance on questions of class should also be the expectation that women of colour can rely upon with our white feminist allies.
487
I am told that the clinical definition of insanity is the tendency to do the same thing over and over again and expect different results.
488

489
I do not expect the white media to create positive black male images.
490

491
People expect your behavior to conform to known patterns and conventions. Your task as a strategist is to upset their expectations.
492
Expect trouble as an inevitable part of life and repeat to yourself, the most comforting words of all; this, too, shall pass.
493
We must expect reverses, even defeats. They are sent to teach us wisdom and prudence, to call forth greater energies, and to prevent our falling into greater disasters.
494

495
I like to do something different that people don’t expect. That’s what I’ve always been about, in everything I do.

Women will change the corporation more than we expect.
498
Do you seriously expect me to be the first Prince of Wales in history not to have a mistress?
499
You don’t know what the Chinese expect in the way of beauty. The presentation is just a farce. You come into a room filled with 50 people and they don’t talk to you. There’s very little interaction.
500
If you just stop and think, baby, honey, love is a funny thing. Whatever you put in, that’s what you expect to gain.
501
If history is going to repeat itself I should think we can expect the same thing again.
502
I am used to playing in six different positions in my career, so that’s not an issue for me. I have always changed positions, and I don’t expect any different. It’s all the same to me. It’s all about the way you interpret it.
503
Our bodies and our minds have their own timing that pay little attention to our cerebral desires. We can’t force or expect things to change as fast as we want, but when we put our efforts in the direction of our intention and drop everything else like snow falling, things unfold with ease.
504
When you deprive people of their right to live in dignity, to hope for a better future, to have control over their lives, when you deprive them of that choice, then you expect them to fight for these rights.
505
I might be writing what people expect me to write, writing from that place where I might be ruled by economic considerations. To overcome that, I started working with my dreams, because I’m not so censored when I use dream material.
