Expects

Famous quotes containing the word expects:

“Wonderful “Force of Public Opinion!” We must act and walk in all points as it prescribes; follow the traffic it bids us, realise the sum of money, the degree of “influence” it expects of us, or we shall be lightly esteemed; certain mouthfuls of articulate wind will be blown at us, and this what mortal courage can front?”
—Thomas Carlyle (1795–1881)

“Whenever you hear a man speak of his love for his country it is a sign that he expects to be paid for it.”

“Nobody expects to trust his body overmuch after the age of fifty.”
