When there is no expectation there is no possibility of frustration. Expectation is the mother of all frustrations; expectation gone, frustration disappears. And when there is no frustration in your life, life really becomes a bed of roses. Then God is a constant blessing; he goes on raining his grace, his beauty on you.

Rajneesh

Many a life has been injured by the constant expectation of death. It is life we have to do with, not death. The best preparation for the night is to work diligently while the day lasts. The best preparation for death is life.

George MacDonald

A label is a mask life wears. We put labels on life all the time. 'Right,' 'wrong,' 'success,' 'failure,' . . . Labeling sets up an expectation of life that is often so compelling we can no longer see things as they really are. This expectation often gives us a false sense of familiarity toward something that is really new and unprecedented. We are in relationship with our expectations and not with life itself.

Rachel Naomi Remen

Ellis Peters

I just write songs from the heart, and you never know who'll like the songs. I try to make sure that I don't allow anybody's expectation to weigh on me. I have my own expectation of life. I believe in letting people be free.

Ester Dean

Suicide is an escape from life. What is life? An escape from death. This means that each of us must die twice. There is the death waiting for us ahead, and the death that comes pursuing from behind.... Once you are free at least from the death that comes pursuing you, you can relax and enjoy life as you go along.

There is this expectation that as January 1st dawns, we're going to do it differently. Moreover, there's this kind of pressure, that even if I've been trying to be different for a while, January 1st, from here on in - I have to be different. There's a cultural expectation, there's a personal expectation. I think it's worth just taking pause for a minute and talking about that.

Rod Stryker

Like magic, she felt him getting nearer, felt it like a pull in the pit of her stomach. It felt like hunger but deeper, heavier. Like the best kind of expectation. Ice cream expectation. Chocolate expectation.

Sarah Addison Allen

That's an interesting way to put it: an expectation of who you should be. More often than not, it's described as an expectation of who you are.

Steve Carell

Non-expectation and acceptance. Because expectation leads to resentment and depression, so I have no expectations.

Anthony Hopkins

With success comes expectation, and I know the expectation on me is going to be pretty high.

Rory McIlroy

The expectation on me as a solo artist is very different to the audience's expectation of a Pink Floyd show.

David Gilmour

Love flourishes in expectation. Expectation strolls through the spacious fields of Time towards Opportunity.

Umberto Eco

You can see a whole book as a series of creating an expectation and then delivering a skew on that expectation so it's not totally satisfied.

George Saunders

The expectation in Munich is always high, this expectation I have towards myself personally and to my players. I was aware of that when I signed with Bayern.
