Famous quotes containing the words life and/or expectancy:
“I can entertain the proposition that life is a metaphor for boxingfor one of those bouts that go on and on, round following round, jabs, missed punches, clinches, nothing determined, again the bell and again and you and your opponent so evenly matched its impossible not to see that your opponent is you.... Life is like boxing in many unsettling respects. But boxing is only like boxing.”
—Joyce Carol Oates (b. 1938)
“O, what a noble mind is here oerthrown!
The courtiers, soldiers, scholars,eye, tongue, sword,
Th expectancy and rose of the fair state,
The glass of fashion and the mold of form,
Th observed of all observers, quite, quite down!”
—William Shakespeare (15641616)
