If you expect nothing from somebody you are never disappointed.
I believe that our Heavenly Father invented man because he was disappointed in the monkey.
Men disappoint me so, I disappoint myself so, yet courage, patience, shuffle the cards…
Destroy my desires, wipe out my ideals, show me something better, and I will follow you.[Уничтожьте мои желания, сотрите мои идеалы, покажите мне что‑нибудь лучше, и я за вами пойду.]
Being disappointed is one thing and being discouraged is something else. I am disappointed but I am not discouraged.
Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.
Sight-seeing is the art of disappointment.
People or stars Regard me sadly, I disappoint them.
Nobody likes being alone that much. I don’t go out of my way to make friends, that’s all. It just leads to disappointment.
Noble characters and pure affections and happy scenes are very comforting things. They’re a refuge from life’s disillusionments.[Il est si doux, parmi les désenchantements de la vie, de pouvoir se reporter en idée sur de nobles caractères, des affections pures et des tableaux de bonheur.]
Men marry because they are tired; women because they are curious. Both are disappointed.
Life seems to me a preparation for something that never happens.
