Expects

Famous quotes containing the word expects:

    In the declining day the thoughts make haste to rest in darkness, and hardly look forward to the ensuing morning. The thoughts of the old prepare for night and slumber. The same hopes and prospects are not for him who stands upon the rosy mountain-tops of life, and him who expects the setting of his earthly day.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Success is an absurd, erratic thing. She arrives when one least expects her and after she has come may depart again almost because of a whim.
    Alice Foote MacDougall (1867–1945)

    Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition.
