I have known him [Micawber] come home to supper with a flood of tears, and a declaration that nothing was now left but a jail; and go to bed making a calculation of the expense of putting bow-windows to the house, "in case anything turned up," which was his favorite expression.
I suppose, to use our national motto, something will turn up. [Motto of Vraibleusia.]
He was fash and full of faith that "something would turn up."
Everything comes if a man will only wait.
Also, there will be signs in the sun and moon and stars, and on the earth anguish of nations not knowing the way out because of the roaring of the sea and its agitation. People will become faint out of fear and expectation of the things coming upon the inhabited earth, for the powers of the heavens will be shaken.
Since yesterday I have been in Alcalá.To steal a kiss from thee, as I do now.
I had also readsome cracked expectations.
Oft expectation fails and most oft thereWhere hope is coldest and despair most fits.

He hath indeed better bettered expectation than you must expect of me to tell you how.
Promising is the very air o' the time; it opens the eyes of expectation: performance is ever the duller for his act; and, but in the plainer and simpler kind of people, the deed of saying is quite out of use.
Expectation whirls me round.That it enchants my sense.
'Tis silence all,And pleasing expectation.
Engage people with what they expect; it is what they are able to discern and confirms their projections. It settles them into predictable patterns of response, occupying their minds while you wait for the extraordinary moment — that which they cannot anticipate.
Expect the best. Prepare for the worst. Capitalize on what comes.
Serene I fold my hands and wait, For lo! my own shall come to me.
What else remains for me?To build a new life on a ruined life.
Blessed is he who expects nothing for he shall never be disappointed.
'Tis expectation makes a blessing dear;Heaven were not Heaven, if we knew what it were.
Although I enter not, Expectant of her.
Blessed are those that nought expect,For they shall not be disappointed.
It is folly to expect men to do all that they may reasonably be expected to do.
It's a different way to begin separating out nature and nurture, and to see how different this boy would be. But I have many times been asked if my children have followed me into research — it's something people subconsciously expect. For a clone, the pressure would be even greater. People would expect the clone to be like the original, and put expectations and limitations on them, and that's the reason why I don't like to use that technique. I think people should be wanted as individuals.
