Baltasar Gracian Quotes About Expectations

Quotes about: Expectations

• Don't show off every day, or you'll stop surprising people. There must always be some novelty left over. The person who displays a little more of it each day keeps up expectations, and no one ever discovers the limits of his talent.

  People, Expectations, Each Day

• Keep expectation alive. Keep stirring it up. Let much promise more, and great deeds herald greater.
