[...] It will take a very short period however for him to catch up, and soon he will have more energy by far, than he expected.

(December 4, Friday, 9 PM: A general expectant feeling of being about to rise. [...]

[...] The steadily increased thyroid medication hasn’t seemed to influence the dozing at all, though we’d expected that it would in the beginning. [...]

[...] That was the reply I’d expected. [...]

[...] He should write his book the same way that he writes his poetry—not demand of himself, but simply and quietly and joyfully expect.

Now the last time I told you that a period of excellent improvement could be expected in his condition, it followed. [...]

[...] The pace was getting to be so slow that I expected the session to end at any moment.)

[...] Again I was surprised, not expecting any interest in a test tonight. [...]

[...] We shall indeed discuss Ruburt’s dream in good time, when he is not expecting it. [...]

A disturbance that was not unexpected, and a result that was expected and hoped for.

[...] We visited him last Sunday at my parents’ home, in Sayre, PA, and he had expected to have the color prints with him; however they had not arrived from the processor yet, to our disappointment and his.

(“and a result that was expected and hoped for.” [...]

Since they are often frightened and unsure of the future, they are more apt to cast their thoughts backwards into their early childhoods, reaching for their earliest memories, and mentally try to gain comfort from the remembered sounds of beloved voices, only to mentally glimpse other images than they expected, or to hear other voices than those for which they yearned.

On a particular level however this makes little difference, because such communications are carried on constantly at subconscious levels, seldom reaching ego awareness, so that individuals are subconsciously conditioned—and underline subconsciously conditioned—therefore expecting, all unknown to the ego, such communications when certain chemical changes come about; since these chemical changes also occur for other reasons when these conditions occur, on a practical level communications will then most easily happen. [...]

[...] It is his inner ego which is intuitional and gives his critical ego the material from which his books are written; and I expect naturally that his ego, and yours, will critically appraise what we have done here, what we will do, and beyond doubt any suggestions to you that I might make. [...]

I expect reasonable criticism, indeed enjoy it. [...]

[...] Now, you expect me to bawl you out in good terms because you have not been following the pathways within yourself. [...]

[...] You know that I will verbalize them for you, but you do not need any verbalization, and when you are finished dillydallying about then I expect you to come back to class on a regular basis and to get to work. [...]

[...] Besides you expect it (to Florence). [...]

[...] He expected this always. [...]

In the main however he felt he did not live up to your expectations, that the two of you were not together emotionally.

[...] Expect to find understanding and (in quotes) “real people,” and you will.

I appreciate the many and varied preparations made this evening for my expected arrival.

[...] For simplicity’s sake you may say that ideas are electric, in that they spark enzymes within the mechanism, that then automatically begin the work of physical construction, in line with inner expectations as outlined earlier.

[...] It does so according to your beliefs, and the mass mold of your beliefs is formed as you learn from parents and teachers what to expect in the nature of events. [...]

[...] It does not regard art as a game, exactly, but it does not expect the same rules to apply, either, to a painted apple on a canvas and a real one. [...]

[...] And before I speak to you again, I expect to see that these developments have, indeed occurred. [...]

I told you that the affair would work out well (Rose) and you can, I believe, expect further developments during the next ten days in particular. [...]

[...] He expected more motion of himself, even though walking specifically was not involved. [...]

[...] It was, you see—I am explaining simply—too great a leap, if you will forgive me, to expect him to walk easily up his dentist’s steps at this point. [...]

[...] You cannot expect to be involved in creative activity of an important sort, and at the same time see through the eyes of others.

[...] If you continue as you are, you can indeed expect quite startling improvements—but you are not to compare, either of you, Ruburt’s condition with the Gallaghers’ skiing, anymore than they could compare their attempts at subjective journeying with Ruburt’s inner soaring. [...]

[...] It would need, naturally, some period of training if you were thinking of climbing mountains, or expected to ski down a good slope tomorrow—but it is well prepared for normal activity. [...]

When you did not expect success, really, then you did not threaten him. Now you expect success, and he feels even beforehand an added threat. [...]

[...] He expects the wrath of God to fall upon them at any time. [...]

If you would remember natural selves, and your own characteristics, you would have a much better, clearer idea of what to realistically expect from yourselves, and you would let other ideas go when they conflict with your own quite definite inclinations. [...]

[...] Any kind of extensive public life cannot be reasonably expected from two people who value privacy to the extent that you both do. [...]

[...] We do make progress in such affairs as visitors, expected or not expected, but could do much better.

[...] For now there are simply some errors he has made, both in expecting too much on the one hand, and not expecting enough on the other. [...]

[...] Most correspondents do not really expect you or me to solve their problems for them—but the hope is there that somehow the problems can be solved, and that the problems themselves are important.

I expect more creative developments at all levels on Ruburt’s part. [...]

[...] I’ve learned some more about the whole situation through the pendulum, and asked Jane if Seth could comment in what I expected would be tonight’s regular session.

[...] We expect his visit to be pleasant.
