New Zealand needs to balance its environmental responsibilities with its economic opportunities because the risk is that if you don't do that - and you want to lead the world - then you might end up getting unintended consequences.

'Dreams From My Father' reveals more about Obama than is usually known about political leaders until after they're dead. Perhaps more than it intends it shows his mind working in real time sentence by sentence in what feels like a private audience with the reader.

Do not suppose however that I intend to urge a diet of classics on anybody. I have seen such diets at work. I have known people who have actually read all or almost all the guaranteed Hundred Best Books. God save us from reading nothing but the best.

We thought it would be fun to try to design a show that would work well internationally and so that' s what we're intending to do with Fraggle Rock and we are indeed now selling it around the world.

I intend to leave after my death a large fund for the promotion of the peace idea but I am skeptical as to its results.

We intend to keep the lines of communication open with the Defense Department so we can help our border law enforcement agencies navigate the equipment application process.

Probably the most visible example of unintended consequences is what happens every time humans try to change the natural ecology of a place.

I don't care whether you're driving a hybrid or an SUV. If you're headed for a cliff you have to change direction. That's what the American people called for in November and that's what we intend to deliver.

Don't change on me. Don't extort me unless you intend to do it forever.

Priests are not men of the world it is not intended that they should be and a University training is the one best adapted to prevent their becoming so.

I think it's brought the world a lot closer together and will continue to do that. There are downsides to everything there are unintended consequences to everything. The most corrosive piece of technology that I've ever seen is called television - but then again television at its best is magnificent.

You'd like more people to recognise what you do is special. But I take the attitude that the best thing I can do for my sport is to be the best at it. The best way people will come to recognise that track and field is a great sport is to see athletes excelling at it. Which is what I intend to do.

What the mass media offers is not popular art but entertainment which is intended to be consumed like food forgotten and replaced by a new dish.
