Intend

Famous quotes containing the word intend:

    That is Gladstone, the greatest statesman that ever lived. I intend to be a statesman, too.

    I’d like to say I didn’t intend to kill her. But when you have a gun ... you always intend ... when you have to.
    Ketti Frings (1915–1981)

    The writer, unlike his non-writing adult friend, has no predisposed outlook; he seldom observes deliberately. He sees what he did not intend to see; he remembers what does not seem wholly possible. Inattentive learner in the schoolroom of life, he keeps some faculty free to veer and wander. His is the roving eye.
    Elizabeth Bowen (1899–1973)
