Intention Quotations
However glorious an action in itself, it ought not to pass for great if it be not the effect of wisdom and intention. Francois de La Rochefoucauld I have no intention of discussing my private life with anyone. Claire Bloom Laws should be interpreted in a liberal sense so that their intention may be preserved. Marcus Tullius Cicero I certainly had no intention of playing a man. Fiona Shaw I went back to graduate school with the clear intention that what I wanted to do with my life was to improve societies, and the way to do that was to find out what made economies work the way they did or fail to work. Douglass North |
