What business had I to think of one that never thought of me?

About This Quote

The quote above is by William Shakespeare. It speaks of the idea that we should not expect much from those who do not care about us. It is easy for those who do not care to be happy, and it is easy for those who do care to suffer. The quote above could be used as a reminder that there should be no expectations placed on people.

When we expect too much from another person, we can end up feeling let down and disappointed when they fail to live up to our expectations. If you want to live with the greatest glory in living, you must learn how to not expect anything from people.
