Reminds me of an autograph entry that went thus:
EXPECT THE BEST, PREPARE FOR THE WORST AND ACCEPT WHATEVER COMES

Expecting NOTHING is hard, MAKES one hard. Hoping for SOMETHING, is easier!

It is beautiful and I agree I want to have something I write talked
about read and annalized as a famous work....but it isn't going to happen so this reminds me to enjoy amusing my friends.
