Iterated Expectations

Famous quotes containing the words iterated and/or expectations:

“The customary cry,
‘Come buy, come buy,’
With its iterated jingle
Of sugar-bated words:”
—Christina Georgina Rossetti (1830–1894)

“Our children do not want models of perfection, neither do they want us to be buddies, friends, or confidants who never rise above their own levels of maturity and experience. We need to walk that middle ground between perfection and peerage, between intense meddling and apathy—the middle ground where our values, standards, and expectations can be shared with our children.”
—Neil Kurshan (20th century)
