Intentions

Famous quotes containing the word intentions:

“My intentions go one way, my desires another. Thus I feel both self-indulgent and deprived.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

“The history of work has been, in part, the history of the worker’s body. Production depended on what the body could accomplish with strength and skill. Techniques that improve output have been driven by a general desire to decrease the pain of labor as well as by employers’ intentions to escape dependency upon that knowledge which only the sentient laboring body could provide.”
—Shoshana Zuboff (b. 1951)

“Good intentions are not enough. They’ve never put an onion in the soup yet.”
—Sonya Levien (1895–1960)
