Back home, people are really, really friendly. We grew up playing the same games and doing the same things. It's different here because we don't have the same connection with kids. We're homesick most of the time, but we know we're here for a purpose and you try and make your dream happen.
Alfred Aboya
It's what needs to be done. Everyone agreed. I am not aware that we have ever moved tracks for the purpose of crossing safety. Its not unheard of for us to move tracks, but its usually in conjunction with some other project.
Robin Chapman
America - a great social and economic experiment, noble in motive and far-reaching in purpose.
Herbert Hoover

Jesse Owens
Learn to get in touch with the silence within yourself and know that everything in this life has a purpose.
Elisabeth Kubler Ross

Thomas Johnson
The purpose of computing is insight, not numbers.
R. W. Hamming
I have never been a serious person.... I am not serious at all because existence is not serious. It is so playful, so full of song and so full of music and so full of subtle laughter. It has no purpose; it is not business-like. It is pure joy, sheer dance, out of overflowing energy. .

The purpose of this program is to correct an age structure that is unbalanced.
Marita Hellberg

They were no help in Karachi (site of escalating violence) or with the bomb blasts. All I got from them were concocted stories of corruption. What is the purpose of intelligence, if they can't infiltrate terrorism?

It's served its purpose for a lot of years, but now it's not big enough.

Scott Derrickson
The purpose is to be a self-sustaining department. The only kind of job we cannot do here is for commercial businesses.
Sarah Richart

This is clearly an e-commerce strategy. What AltaVista and other portals want to do is attract users to their portal, and the purpose of that is to drive e-commerce.
Brownlee Thomas
Forget the smoke and mirrors. From a glossy sales presentation, you can believe that anything is possible. The whole purpose [of the evaluation] was to let our people loose under the covers and see how difficult it would be to implement the portal.
Martin Davis
Brown is desperately scrabbling around for purpose and identity and facing a struggle.
Alan Duncan

Shirley MacLaine
Even if cloning begins with a benign purpose, it could lead to scientific categories of superior and inferior people.
Cliff Stearns
The only purpose for which power can be rightfully exercised over any member of a civilized community, against his will, is to prevent harm to others. His own good, either physical or moral, is not a sufficient warrant.
John Stuart Mill
Every presidency has a main theme, a central purpose, ... Different presidents have different strengths.
Richard Freeland
Our early work that was done out there was really not comprehensive, ... It didn’t include all portions. For example, no one even looked in the building. There was a little sampling in and around the cap site, which is OK for the purpose it was done, but it was not comprehensive.
Scott Harris
The purpose of art is to lay bare the questions which have been hidden by the answers.
James Baldwin

Jumana Musa
We are denying any involvement in any property acquisitions for such a purpose.
Byron Miller

Shawn Grass
It could play to the image of a president who is overreaching and not succeeding -- going to war without a clear purpose or credible proof in retrospect, isolating America, wiretapping.
Doug Schoen
The decision to delay approval (of the sabbatical decision) is based on the fact that research and scholarship are central to the purpose of sabbatical leaves.

(Fort Huachuca) served its purpose, but I know (today's) game is going to be a whole lot harder. It was good to get this win, though, off the break.
Phillip Woods
As the technology has gotten better, the Secret Service is understandably concerned that not just crooks but ordinary people can print counterfeit currency as a one-off thing.

Lauren Weinstein
The purpose of this purchase is to extend the life of our Vactor truck by decreasing the wear and tear caused by the jetting function.
Kevin Flynn

Scott Roberts
I appreciate the pressure to win I have always experienced at Princeton. It motivates and contributes a sense of urgency and purpose to everything we do.
James Egan
I think that 9/11 is a greater loss if we do not change our behavior in some way. I think that if we don't turn it into a positive change in some way, those innocent people really died for no purpose. I would like to think they had some important purpose. What I see, that I don't like, is the product of what our land of opportunity can breed.
Doug Davidson
Why is it that we entertain the belief that for every purpose odd numbers are the most effectual?
Pliny the Elder
What we weren't counting on was the rapid progress of the Open Invention Network, which serves a similar purpose for businesses in a much more compelling way.

George Edwards
Anyone who is able to come down from the mountains gets relief and medical assistance at the camps established for this purpose. They do not have to cross the Line of Control to find relief assistance.
Tasneem Aslam
All nature's creatures join to express nature's purpose. Somewhere in their mounting and mating, rutting and butting is the very secret of nature itself.
Graham Swift
The larger companies, they're so broadly diversified, it's a hiccup, ... That's the whole purpose of having numerous properties. If you're a small operator, then it can become meaningful.

Russ Dondero
Its principle purpose is to help keep occupants inside the vehicle and protected.

Alexei Kudrin
There have even been rumors that mathematics is used in economics (and in other social sciences) either for the deliberate purpose of mystification or to confer dignity upon common places as French was once used in diplomatic communications.
James Newman
Nature is not cruel, pitiless, indifferent. This is one of the hardest lessons for humans to learn. We cannot admit that things might be neither good nor evil, neither cruel nor kind, but simply callous -- indifferent to all suffering, lacking all purpose.
Richard Dawkins
It just didn't work out. It doesn't serve any purpose to dwell on it.
Alonzo Jackson
It's the county share of public health money that the state allows us to withhold for this purpose. It won't mean any more money coming from the county. It will just be what's been held for us to use for local construction.
Bill Leach
I personally believe that each of us was put here for a purpose -- to build not to destroy. If I can make people smile, then I have served my purpose for God.

Matt Baccarani
Design is a plan for arranging elements in such a way as best to accomplish a particular purpose.

It's a beautiful composition. It will make for a very exciting building, but not for this purpose.
Janet White
The value of identity of course is that so often with it comes purpose.
Richard R. Grant
I think that's a big difference. If the ones in the program aren't coming back to society, what's the purpose? If you're going to do it, do it for the ones that are coming out.
