Intend

Famous quotes containing the word intend:

“Everybody has that thing where they need to look one way but they come out looking another way and that’s what people observe.

—Diane Arbus (1923–1971)

“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)
