Well, I am a Malayali and I know the kind of expectations my fans have about my films. That, for me, is the biggest award. So I try and pick roles that I hope viewers will like. Malayalis want actors to be subtle in their acting and they enjoy realism.

Amala Paul

With a popular show, you know that there's expectations there, so that's a little nerve-wracking when you're new and you're just trying to find your legs on something, but it's exciting, too, because that's what we work so hard for.

Aaron Ashmore

Public servants should be focused on serving the public - not any special interest group, and good governance should be an expectation - not an exception.

Abigail Spanberger

You realize, as time goes on, there is a certain expectation now in 2018 where fans want to see cool, exciting, hard-hitting sports entertainment or hard-hitting pro wrestling, and there are ways to give them that without necessarily putting yourself in the hospital that night or not being able to move the next morning.

Adam Cole

There are happy stories out there, but I think some of them may raise false expectations for teens.

Adam Silvera

Our expectation is that by 2050, which is a long time away, India will be the largest economy in the world, overtaking both the U.S. and China.

Adi Godrej

A good monetary policy follows inflationary expectations and not historical numbers.

There must be an opportunity that matches with our strategy. Just because we have a gap, we don't want to go and acquire anything and everything. What we acquire should fit in with our strategy, human resources and market expectations.

Adi Godrej

We live in an era of revolution, the revolution of rising expectations.

Adlai Stevenson II

I learned this through Iron Man - it really doesn't matter what I think about who he is because everybody has such a huge idea about what they think the guy is. You can't just rely on your instincts and your imagination, you have to match up with what the expectations are from the people.

Adrian Pasdar

The main thing in making art often is letting go of your expectation and your idea.

Agnes Martin

I love L.A. Some people arrive with big expectations and are inevitably disappointed, but I can audition in the day, which can be gruelling and lonely, but then gig and be creative in the evenings.

Aisling Bea

We hope to win over new listeners who would normally never listen to an Aly & AJ record. That's our greatest expectation we've set for ourselves.

AJ Michalka

Fans always have an opinion of their own. We only try to live up to their expectations.

Akhil Akkineni

Ever since I can remember, over-expectation and pressure have been my worst enemies.

Akhil Akkineni

Our laws need to reflect the evolution of technology and the changing expectations of American society. This is why the Constitution is often called a 'living' document.

Al Franken

I have absolutely no plans and no expectations of ever being a candidate again.

Al Gore

I don't want to say that our expectations of love are too high; it's just that if we're to meet them, we have to become a little more self-aware.

Alain de Botton

Future orientation is combined with a notion and expectation of progress, and nothing is impossible.

Alan Dundes

Think about just exceeding expectations of every job you're being asked to do. Continually ask for feedback on how it's going. Ask everybody involved what you can do to do an even better job, and the world will beat down your door trying to ask you to do more and more.

Alan Mulally

I've always felt that improv looks and feels more clever when you're there to experience it live than when you have the degree of separation that television creates. Television raises expectations.
