Evidence (2016-09-09): As the brilliantly creative William Shakespeare said, "Expectation is the root of all heartache." Although Shakespeare coined the phrase, I heard it first from the brilliantly creative Andrew Obrecht. The simple and powerful message warns us to be mindful to not create expectations we cannot commit to, and to not attach to expectations that are outside our control. [...] Yes, unmet expectations can cause heartache. But what is life without a little heartache? Sometimes our unmet expectations are a signal that we are not getting what we need from a relationship, but generally, I would say, we each need to practice not being the center of the universe. I still create expectations, but I am mindful to not blame others or get all torn up when my version of the future doesn't match reality. I still get a little perturbed when I expect to be taken out for dinner but I come home to a tired husband who wants a night in. But I ask myself, "Is this worth spending energy on?" Although I still get caught in expectations, I snap myself out of their hold pretty quickly when I notice my energy has shifted into a place of unnecessary negativity.

Evidence (2019-05-19): Few dramatists can lay claim to the universal reputation achieved by William Shakespeare. His plays have been translated into many languages and performed on amateur and professional stages throughout the world. Radio, television, and film versions of the plays in English, German, Russian, French, and Japanese have been heard and seen by millions of people. The plays have been revived and reworked by many prominent producers and playwrights, and they have directly influenced the work of others. Novelists and dramatists such as Charles Dickens, Bertolt Brecht, William Faulkner, and Tom Stoppard, inspired by Shakespeare’s plots, characters, and poetry, have composed works that attempt to re-create the spirit and style of the originals and to interpret the plays in the light of their own ages. A large and flourishing Shakespeare industry exists in England, America, Japan, and Germany, giving evidence of the playwright’s popularity among scholars and the general public alike. [...] William Shakespeare began his career as a playwright by experimenting with plays in the three genres—comedy, history, and tragedy—that he would perfect as his career matured. The genre that dominated his attention throughout his early career, however, was history. Interest in the subject as proper stuff for drama was no doubt aroused by England’s startling victory over Spain’s vaunted navy, the Armada, in 1588. This victory fed the growing popular desire to see depictions of the critical intrigues and battles that had shaped England’s destiny as the foremost Protestant power in Europe.

Evidence (2024-10-03): William Shakespeare (c. 23[a] April 1564 – 23 April 1616)[b] was an English playwright, poet and actor. He is widely regarded as the greatest writer in the English language and the world's pre-eminent dramatist.[4][5][6] He is often called England's national poet and the "Bard of Avon" (or simply "the Bard"). His extant works, including collaborations, consist of some 39 plays, 154 sonnets, three long narrative poems and a few other verses, some of uncertain authorship. His plays have been translated into every major living language and are performed more often than those of any other playwright.[7] Shakespeare remains arguably the most influential writer in the English language, and his works continue to be studied and reinterpreted.

Evidence (2024-07-23): The origin of this quote, in this form at least, is unknown – but it is not Shakespeare. No one has been able to find a reference in Shakespeare’s works to these words, though it is a matter of opinion whether you might find something similar that Shakespeare said, that has evolved into the above. Actually, this quote closely resembles the Second Noble Truth of Buddhism, which is often expressed as "Desire is the root of all suffering." What is expectation but desiring a certain outcome? If we do ever find an actual "source" for this quote it will be difficult to argue that they’re not just paraphrasing (or maybe even just translating) Buddha.

Claim: claims that playwright William Shakespeare once stated, "Expectation is the root of all heartache." (Viral quote, 2019-08-25)
Evidence (2012-03-19): No, this is not a quotation from Shakespeare. Although he uses the word "expectation" a fair bit, he does not say that it is the root of anything, or any similar statement. He uses "heartache" only the once, in that rather famous speech in Hamlet. [...] The Lord does not reward those who expect to receive. In doing so he would be giving to those who have asked, not those who deserve to receive. But you have to wonder why a good Lord would never answer those who seek him out. When expectation fails, it would make sense to expect a heartache, but that is an assumption in itself. For mysterious ways to work, He'd have to answer someone at some point whenever that isAlso.There is a scripture at Proverbs 13:12 that says: "Hope (or expectation)deferred maketh the heart sick: but when the desire cometh, it is a tree of life." In general, waiting for something we long for can be SO difficult, but finally GETTING it renews our life and gives us great joy. Likewise, longing for the day of salvation in a world full of sadness can be difficult, literally 'making the heart sick', but we know that when that Day FINALLY comes it will be joyful and refreshing and life giving, like eating from the 'tree of life' (Revelation 2:7)

Evidence (2016-04-14): This is a quote often attributed to William Shakespeare. But while it has the ring of the Bard, he didn’t say it. What Shakespeare really said, in the play "All’s Well That Ends Well," is this: "Oft expectation fails, and most oft there where most it promises." [...] Like nearly all of Shakespeare’s works, expectations—those things, duties, performances or behaviors that are expected of us, and that we expect of ourselves—are difficult to categorize. In other words, it’s tough to know whether having expectations is good for us or not. Shakespeare is good for us. All of life’s brilliance, bawdiness, heartbreak and humor, there in every single bite. I promise. But having expectations about life and people, well, that’s a whole other story.

Evidence (2024-01-01): "Expectation is the root of all heartache," stated by William Shakespeare, has a substantial meaning that is widely supported by psychology. This proverb can be utilized in all aspects of life. It is ordinary for the human being to be let down and disappointed on some occasions.

Evidence (2024-01-01): Washington's post-Revolutionary War rehabilitation of Mount Vernon progressed from repairing the physical improvements of his plantation to a reconsideration of his entire mode of farming. The end of the war triggered an interest amongst educated and wealthy American planters and gentleman farmers in agricultural reform. On March 1, 1785, twenty-three such prominent planters founded the first American organization devoted to agricultural pursuits—the Philadelphia Society for the Promotion of Agriculture. [...] In June 1785, Washington signaled his intention to adopt a new and more rigorous approach to farming, seeking an English farmer to assume the management of his Mount Vernon plantation. Washington's desire for a capable farmer circulated through several hands in England and soon found its way to Arthur Young, a major figure in the agricultural reform movement in England. On January 7, 1786 Young wrote directly to Washington, offering to procure workers, materials, and farm animals as needed. The correspondence with Young soon expanded to include other prominent figures in English agricultural circles, including Dr. James Anderson and Sir John Sinclair. In 1797, Washington was even made an honorary member of the English Board of Agriculture.

Evidence (2021-11-03): George Washington: Farming & Agriculture George Washington Agriculture Quote "It will not be doubted that with reference either to individual or national welfare, agriculture is of primary importance. In proportion as nations advance in population and other circumstances of maturity this truth becomes more apparent, and renders the cultivation of the soil more and more an object of public patronage." –President George Washington, Eighth Annual Address to Congress, December 7th, 1796 [1] [...] Washington’s agricultural pursuits reflect the shift in revolutionary America. Like many Virginians, tobacco was his cash crop (it even functioned as currency in colonial Virginia – taxes were paid in pounds of tobacco), as it was in high demand in Europe. The colonists would ship the tobacco to England, where it would be sold by merchants in London. Most arrangements meant that the tobacco could be bartered by the colonialists for fine items from Europe and England. But by 1766, Washington understood that tobacco was an unsustainable crop. In addition to being incredibly labor-intensive, tobacco left farmers with very poor soil, as a result of erosion caused by the tobacco plants. Washington himself was in personal debt because of his love of fine imports from Europe and not getting a fair market price for his tobacco. [2] Around then, Washington transitioned from tobacco to grains.

Evidence (2016-02-15): But, Washington was not the only president who valued agriculture and the future of farming in the country. Whether it was President Thomas Jefferson who said, "agriculture is our wisest pursuit…and cultivators of the earth are the most valuable citizens," or President Abraham Lincoln who described agriculture as "the great calling," our presidents knew that farming was a noble profession and a secure food supply was critical for a thriving nation. [...] – President George Washington "I am entirely a farmer, soul and body, never scarcely admitting a sentiment on any other subject." – President Thomas Jefferson "…that no other human occupation opens so wide a field for the profitable and agreeable combination of labor with cultivated thought, as agriculture."
