"It`s not like we`re the most intelligent bunch, but as far as street sense - hanging out, doing drugs, partying, girls and shit like that - we know and understand a lot. It`s like we purposely put ourselves through street school. I didn`t know how to pick up ckicks, so I used to stand outside the Rainbow and watch how this goes down."
- W. Axl RoseHarry Potter, we were never really interested in. It never crossed a desk with us. Nothing really happened with it. Myself, I felt that it should have stayed a book. I never would have wanted to do the film. It`s a great book and 70 percent of the book is your own imagination and putting in where the author has purposely left the gaps so kids can sort of put in their input and sort of custom read the book and I think that`s one of the most brilliant parts of the novels and when the movie comes out it`s going to be a stereotype for people when they read the book.
- Haley Joel OsmentI`ve never purposely gone out to take somebody out. Well, maybe in elementary school I once did try to trip somebody.
- Amber BensonI purposely would not go and see the old version of "Here Comes Mr. Jordan." They told me my part was played by Claude Rains, for whom I have an infinite admiration, and I knew I would never be as good as him.
- James MasonI don`t know if the league did it purposely,
- Adam VinatieriNowadays, as they`ve been working on the cars and the quality control is getting a lot better, there`s not a really a big difference. The cars are built specifically for different types of race tracks, whether it`s a high-travel track or low-travel track, and that`s what they go by. They go by data. It`s past me, way beyond me now. But as far as me saying I`ve got a favorite car, they`re getting stuff more consistent. I don`t really see that anymore. They all seem to run about the same - unless they`re purposely trying to make one differently, which they can do very easily.
- Ricky RuddI`m not saying we purposely introduced bugs or anything, but this is kind of a natural result of any complexities of software... that you can`t fully test it.
- Will WrightI mean, The New York Times actually had an interesting case recently where they described a detainee who was afraid of the dark, and so he was purposely kept very much in the dark.
- Ali Abdel FattahWhen two people of the same sex '¦ decide that they want to then adopt children, '¦ then I think what you have in many respects is state-sanctioned child abuse because you have purposely taken away either a momma or a daddy, and mom and dad are both necessary in a child`s life.
- Armando VargasI think he`s got it basically right, although I don`t believe the system was set up purposely to hurt boys.
- Barry CarpenterWhen in reading we meet with any maxim that may be of use, we should take it for our own, and make an immediate application of it, as we would of the advice of a friend whom we have purposely consulted
- Charles Caleb Colton
