Famous quotes containing the word expects:
“In fast-moving, progress-conscious America, the consumer expects to be dizzied by progress. If he could completely understand advertising jargon he would be badly disappointed. The half-intelligibility which we expect, or even hope, to find in the latest product language personally reassures each of us that progress is being made: that the pace exceeds our ability to follow.”
—Daniel J. Boorstin (b. 1914)
“Blessed is the man who expects nothing, for he shall never be disappointed was the ninth beatitude.”
—Alexander Pope (16881744)
“Nobody expects to trust his body overmuch after the age of fifty.”
—Edward Hoagland (b. 1932)
