Expected Win

Famous quotes containing the words expected and/or win:

    For I had expected always
    Some brightness to hold in trust,
    Some final innocence
    To save from dust;
    Stephen Spender (1909–1995)

    Pious Selinda goes to prayers,
    If I but ask the favour;
    And yet the tender fool’s in tears,
    When she believes I’ll leave her.

    Would I were free from this restraint,
    Or else had hopes to win her;
    Would she would make of me a saint,
    Or I of her a sinner.
    William Congreve (1670–1729)
