Don't wish me happiness - I don't expect to be happy it's gotten beyond that somehow. Wish me courage and strength and a sense of humor - I will need them all.

When people meet me many times they're very surprised because they expect someone who is kind of wacky with seven piercings and very hip and cool and New York City and I'm not.

Me and my dad are friends. We're cool. I'll never be disappointed again because I don't expect anything anymore from him. I just let him exist and that's how we get along.

When I come home and I'm tired from filming all day I expect her to be there and make sure everything is cool for me. You know like drawing my bath and helping me into bed.

There has never been an unexpectedly short debugging period in the history of computers.

Few companies that installed computers to reduce the employment of clerks have realized their expectations... They now need more and more expensive clerks even though they call them 'operators' or 'programmers.'

The Internet has changed everything. We expect to know everything instantly. If you don't understand digital communication you're at a disadvantage.

Who would know but ten years ago that kids would be texting each other all the time that that would be one of their main forms of communication. And so many times these kids know more about the technology than their parents. And so many times we're putting kids in very adult situations and expecting them to behave like they're 40 years old.

I think if there's any difference between me and a traditional CEO it's that I've been unwilling to change myself or shape my personality around what's expected.

You have to come in and be that character when you walk into the room. That's what one of my first acting teachers taught me. You know don't go in there being Jennifer and then expect to flip and change because they're not going to have that imagination.
