Crow paced back and forth, his form flickering like flame. "It's been a thousand years, Alister. I never intended for anyone to find it, so it's very well protected. One little misstep, and you and my line will be history. " "Since when are you so concerned about your line?" Han said. Crow stared at him for a long moment. "Since I found out I had one.
This was in 2004, and it told me that President [Barack] Obama intended to be very careful and noncontroversial in addressing race matters. I
When it comes to life, we spin our own yarn, and where we end up is really, in fact, where we always intended to be.
People talk about this often in the art world. The press releases have reached a level of absurdity and creativity - creative absurdity - that has completely detached from its intended object. It's left reality behind long ago. It's like something out of William Burroughs.
As a teacher and parent, I've had a very personal interest in seeking new ways of teaching. Like most other teachers and parents, I've been well aware painfully so, at times that the whole teachinglearning process is extraordinarily imprecise, most of the time a hit-and-miss operation.

If they [liberals] didn't believe we were mean spirited they couldn't stay liberal. They have to believe they mean better than us, but we don't have to believe that we mean better than them. We have to believe that we do better than them. We measure morality by what happens not what is intended.
The chief difference between words and deeds is that words are always intended for men for their approbation, but deeds can be done only for God.
Riches are intended for the comfort of life, and not life for the purpose of hoarding riches.
It doesn't sound like there was time for the word to be there. On the other hand, I didn't intentionally make an inane statement. . . certainly the 'a' was intended, because that's the only way the statement makes any sense.
These acts of mass murder were intended to frighten our nation into chaos and retreat. But they have failed; our country is strong.
