No man can expect to find a friend without faults; nor can he propose himself to be so to another. Without reciprocal mildness and temperance there can be no continuance of friendship. Every man will have something to do for his friend, and something to bear with in him. The sober man only can do the first; and for the latter, patience is requisite. It is better for a man to depend on himself, than to be annoyed with either a madman or a fool.
I sing some songs but don't expect me to release an album anytime soon.
If you're looking for a boyfriend, you aren't gonna find one. They seem to come into your life when you least expect it.
Expect resistance but pray for miracles!
I don't expect success. I prepare for it.
The ones that measure up are not always the ones you expect.
Dreams are so important. You need to have big goals and expect a lot of yourself but you have to enjoy the ride too.
I expect to weave through the crowd, dodging elbows and muttering "excuse me" the way I always do, but there is no need. Becoming Dauntless has made me noticable.

It's not as though there aren't many, many art works and many other cultures, but there was something special about the civic nature of the Greek theater. All the citizens stopped working. They came into these theaters. It wasn't like a Broadway theater where you sit in the dark and you expect to be passively entertained. You're in this theater, amphitheater, in bright sunlight looking at your fellow citizens, recognizing their faces, and thinking with them about the future of your city. I think very few cultures have had a theatrical tradition that is quite so civic.
I wanted to see myself as something different, and I wanted to convince people that I was capable of something other than what they would expect from me.
If my grandchildren were to look at me and say, 'You were aware species were disappearing and you did nothing, you said nothing', that I think is culpable. I don't know how much more they expect me to be doing, I'd better ask them.
I never expect a soldier to think.
One can only continue to expect to be read if one omits everything that is unimportant.
I don't expect people to feel sorry for me. My teammates get more upset about the criticism and booing than I do.
Peace, development, and justice are all connected to each other. We cannot talk about economic development without talking about peace. How can we expect economic development in a battlefield?
What happened to [Michael Brown] should've never happened. Never. But when we don't have respect for ourselves, how do we expect them to respect us? It starts from within. Don't start with just a rally, don't start from looting - it starts from within.
We tend to get what we expect - both from ourselves and from others. When we expect more, we tend to get more; when we expect less, we tend to get less.
The point is, you can't keep doing the same thing and expect it to keep working.
