All earthly delights are sweeter in expectation than in enjoyment; but all spiritual pleasures more in fruition than in expectation.

Charlotte Selver

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

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

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.

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 enormous expectation having to do with sexual love and the shame involved in this expectation degrades all a woman's perspectives from the start.
