Expected Win

Famous quotes containing the words expected and/or win:

    “One thing is certain the only thing that makes you younger or older is that nothing can happen that is different from what you expected and when that happens and it mostly does happen everything is different from what you expected then there is no difference between
    being younger or older.”
    —Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)

    “I became a virtuoso of deceit. It wasn’t pleasure I was after, it was knowledge. I consulted the strictest moralists to learn how to appear, philosophers to find out what to think and novelists to see what I could get away with. And, in the end, I distilled everything down to one wonderfully simple principle: win or die.”
    —Christopher Hampton (b. 1946)
