I say quite deliberately that the Christian religion, as organized in its Churches, has been and still is the principal enemy of moral progress in the world.

I have deliberately stung myself with a small section of box jelly tentacle, and it felt like being burned by a steam iron. Larger stings can lead to cardiac arrest, and mind-blowing pain.

Public opinion, a vulgar, impertinent, anonymous tyrant who deliberately makes life unpleasant for anyone who is not content to be the average person.

I deliberately never read about films before I see them.

As a matter of fact, I deliberately look for the mundane, because I feel these stories are ignored. The most influential things that happen to virtually all of us are the things that happen on a daily basis. Not the traumas.

People are always angry at America. They’re absolutely certain that America either caused their problems or is deliberately not fixing their problems. But the anger is always directed at America and never at Americans.

I thought that there might be something unsatisfying about directing two Tolkien movies after ‘Lord of the Rings.’ I’d be trying to compete with myself and deliberately doing things differently.

New Orleans is a place where people are deliberately undereducated so that they can be a labour class – the economy there is tourism, and one of the only outlets that black males have traditionally been allowed is to play jazz music, y’know?

There have been times when I have deliberately tried to take my life… I think I must have been crying for some attention.

I even do things sometimes just to get the crowd booing me, whether it’s smashing someone or doing something deliberately silly. It’s been part of my game for a long time now.

Look at every path closely and deliberately, then ask ourselves this crucial question: Does this path have a heart? If it does, then the path is good. If it doesn’t, it is of no use.

Amazon deliberately provides cafeteria space for only a third of its employees, which encourages people to venture out of the office.

I don’t believe for a second ‘X Factor’ would deliberately put someone through who wasn’t mentally stable.

Even though I build buildings and I pursue my architecture, I pursue it as an artist. I deliberately keep a tiny studio. I don’t want to be an architectural firm. I want to remain an artist.

One of the most important tools in critical thinking about numbers is to grant yourself permission to generate wrong answers to mathematical problems you encounter. Deliberately wrong answers!

I always find it extremely hard to remember the act of beginning. I almost deliberately forget it.

Whenever I see a new film, I deliberately tune down several ‘dials’ in my mind – critical faculties associated with logic, plotting, science – just so I can retain some ability to enjoy a flick in the spirit it’s offered.

I would say that I quite consciously rely on my obsessions in all my work, that I deliberately set up an obsessional frame of mind. In a paradoxical way, this leaves one free of the subject of the obsession.

Within the pages of The Betrayal of America I prove that these justices were absolutely up to no good, and they deliberately set out to hand the election to George Bush.

It’s weirder and more surprising than the other books. I think there are more places where it’s just more reality bending, deliberately so. I think it’s a lot more emotionally raw.

I’m funny at home too, but not deliberately. My wife is usually laughing at me rather than with me.

Large areas of the Gulf have escaped being scraped by trawls, crushed by more than 40,000 miles of pipelines, or displaced by one of 50,000 oil and gas wells drilled since the middle of the 20th century. Some places have been deliberately protected.

Usually, when people get to the end of a chapter, they close the book and go to sleep. I deliberately write a book so when the reader gets to the end of the chapter, he or she must turn one more page.

WhatsApp deliberately obfuscates their apps‘ binaries to make sure no one is able to study them thoroughly.

I’m afraid that – not necessarily deliberately, but consistently – I’ve made a kind of laboratory out of my life, where I mix the stuff in the test tubes to create explosions – possibly resulting in interesting by-products. I mean, not deliberately – I’d be crazy to deliberately do that – or maybe not.

I wouldn’t deliberately go and buy something that one would categorise as an extravagant thing.

I’m a self-confessed geek, and my whole concept of music at first was entirely electronic. In many ways, it turned out to be an advantage. I was so green, so utterly naive about the nature of classical music, that I did things that made me look totally, deliberately unorthodox.

I am capable of bad taste – deliberately.

In training, the players would deliberately hit high balls into me and barge into me so I’d get used to that side of the English game. I actually enjoy the physical side of it now.

At one stage of my film career, between 2007 and 2010, I had taken up many projects where I played the role of a police officer. Later, I deliberately took a decision to not do any police roles. Since then I’ve been growing my hair and beard so that I’m not roped in for any such roles.

I haven‘t deliberately set out to play the blonde bombshell in my movies. In fact, it’s probably been quite the opposite. After the success of The Mask, I wasn’t offered all that many blonde bombshell parts, to be honest. I think people believed from the beginning that I could actually walk and talk at the same time.

I have deliberately arranged my life so that I see pictures of cute animals on the Internet every day.

We deliberately used elements from Brazilian music and from African and Asian music. Now people can hear that but then it sounded so abstract, they couldn’t hear it.

The consuming desire of most human beings is deliberately to plant their whole life in the hands of some other person. I would describe this method of searching for happiness as immature. Development of character consists solely in moving toward self-sufficiency.

For better or worse, I’ve always been curious musically. Whether it’s opera or Judy Garland or pop, I’ve deliberately sought those things out. I’ve never wanted to do the same things over and over. Some think I’ve accomplished what I set out to do, and others consider me a dilettante.

The writers of the French enlightenment had deliberately used blasphemy as a weapon, refusing to accept the power of the Church to set limiting points on thought.

Frankly, I think if I won the lottery and won a billion dollars, I’d still want to continue doing this job. I love expressing myself through it. I’ve gotten to really love acting. And I’ve gotten to know Big Bird from the inside out so thoroughly it’s like playing my kid. I can’t imagine deliberately stopping.

It’s very hard as a tall woman to remove your deliberately pronounced feminine aspects and look more masculine.

The look of being too deliberately dressed, with everything cautiously matching, always bores me.

Given the accelerating velocity of history, we should begin charting deliberately the next phase in its trajectory.

I deliberately decided not to go on Twitter. I’ve read about how much stress it can cause. I don’t think it’s healthy.

Each of my books is different. Deliberately… I wanted to create my society, my people, in their fullness.

I started deliberately looking for characters, ideally outsiders and ideally Americans. So I just started reading widely, as I tell my students to do: read voraciously and promiscuously.

The course that I have uniformly pursued, ever since I became a missionary, has been rather peculiar. In order to become an acceptable and eloquent preacher in a foreign language, I deliberately abjured my own. When I crossed the river, I burnt my ships.

Some days, I feel like I should win Best Mom of the Day award, and some days, I find myself doing strange things that don’t have any real purpose, in faraway corners in my house, and I realize I am literally and deliberately hiding from my children.

There must be a little memory bank, a library or storage unit in my brain, that just tucks away memories of other people. I suck in as much of life as I can. I don’t do it deliberately – I’m just curious. Dangerously so. I collect visual and aural patterns, physical human patterns, from experience.

I’m a great believer in karma, and the vengeance that it serves up to those who are deliberately mean is generally enough for me.

Films which often preach Hindu–Muslim unity have deliberately steered clear of Hindu-Muslim love stories.

Total ghettoization, because they were in charge of public housing, the local council, and they deliberately located people in a ghetto situation in order to ensure that they maintained control.

To be honest, I deliberately tend not to post things like ‘I’m having a relationship‘ or where I live. I’m a bit reluctant to keep this kind of information up to date because people are inclined to see things like that as statements, and I rather keep a little bit of privacy, if possible at all.

After the war, it was painstakingly rebuilt and that reconstruction is perceived as expressing the nation‘s determination to survive, to conserve its history and its culture.

If I do feel scared I deliberately challenge myself not to feel scared.

I hear a lot of people singing in funny voices and singing like they’re stupid. Singing in a deliberately fey and dumb and childish way. And I find it to be a disturbing trend.

I have never in my career embarked on a journey towards controversy. I have never deliberately set a flame.

A lot of young women ask me, ‘Can you go into politics and maintain your ideals?’ Well, I think you can. You might not, in any one interview, tell the whole truth, but to deliberately deceive the public who’ve elected you is totally unacceptable.

Columbo’s deliberately irritating questioning technique – ‘just one more thing’ – is designed to produce discomfort rather than to elicit information.

I’ve never done anything deliberately; I just speak my mind, and that is what I consistently do and will always do in any way shape or form that I can.

I have for some time now been deeply troubled by the growing difficulties faced by Christian communities in various parts of the Middle East. It seems to me that we cannot ignore the fact that Christians in the Middle East are increasingly being deliberately targeted by fundamentalist Islamist militants.

To be honest, I deliberately tend not to post things like ‘I’m having a relationship‘ or where I live. I’m a bit reluctant to keep this kind of information up to date because people are inclined to see things like that as statements, and I rather keep a little bit of privacy, if possible at all.

I was doing sketches that were funny but socially irresponsible. I felt I was deliberately being encouraged and I was overwhelmed.

Philip‘s story is the most interesting in the royal family – his background is the opposite of what you’d think. Everyone has this idea that Philip is this bumbling, deliberately posh sort of man who says the wrong thing.

Take control of your consistent emotions and begin to consciously and deliberately reshape your daily experience of life.

History is littered with examples of objects and inventions with a power beyond their professed purpose. Sometimes it’s deliberately and maliciously factored into their design, but at other times, it’s a result of thoughtless omissions.

The audience may not have felt it was right, and the author may have felt a little upset, but every part I’ve played I’ve twisted around in my mind until I’ve made it into something of my own. Looking back over it, I didn’t deliberately sit down and plan like that, but it does read like it.

The infrastructure of the US is a long-term suspension of disbelief that such things won’t be exploded deliberately by people who don’t create anything.

I think at some point there may be artists who will get fed up, and they deliberately want to use their art as a means to rock the waves a little bit. And instead of doing the status quo, they’ll deliberately go out to really make a change. I think Kendrick Lamar is an example of that.

One must be deliberately ignoring reality to pretend that our asylum process is not being abused.

A hacker doesn’t deliberately destroy data or profit from his activities.

We have been fed so many false narratives, many of them racialized to deliberately feed a racist agenda. It’s important to address and dig into that wherever you can.

More than anything else I recall being, or trying very deliberately to be, a perfect child. Not a Goody Two-shoes, but a kid who did good, who worked hard and met every expectation. I strove to achieve in the excessive way that psychotherapists tend to regard with concern.

I have deliberately kept singing because I have to at my age. If I stopped for even a year my voice would slowly deteriorate until it’s not there at all. That’s a fact about getting to my age.

I don’t have a lot of time for things that are deliberately, achingly cool.

I’ve been airbrushed out, as it were. You can imagine my frustration at being erased from history deliberately. I really don’t know how Yoko can sleep at night knowing what she’s done. But I can tell you I sleep very peacefully.

I have deliberately tried to do a variety of roles during my career so that people aren’t bored of me. I also believe I have never prompted my directors or my audience to say that I have let them down with my performance. Maybe that’s what has worked for me.

In all my years of play, I never saw an ump deliberately make an unfair decision. They really called them as they saw ’em.

It is aspiring tyrants who say that ‘civil liberties end when an attack on our safety begins.’ Conversely, leaders who wish to preserve the rule of law find other ways to speak about real terrorist threats, and certainly do not invent them or deliberately make them worse.

Veal, by definition, is the product of a sick, anemic, deliberately malnourished calf, a newborn dragged away from his mother in the first hours of life. Veal calves are dealt the harshest of punishments for the least essential of meats.

My one criticism of Vertigo Crime to date is that it’s been a boys‘ club, reveling in violence that, while entertainingly lurid, lacks depth. Of course, the comics world is deliberately double-dimensional – and shouldn’t apologize for being so.

Any pitcher who throws at a batter and deliberately tries to hit him is a communist.

Once my heart was captured, reason was shown the door, deliberately and with a sort of frantic joy. I accepted everything, I believed everything, without struggle, without suffering, without regret, without false shame. How can one blush for what one adores?

Ours is the only country deliberately founded on a good idea.

I did ‘Quigley Down Under,’ which is quite deliberately placed in Australia, which is a Tom Selleck, Alan Rickman, Laura San Giacomo film from ’88, I want to say.

I deliberately try to carry a different perception of myself as opposed to my father‘s. I respect my dad and his body of work, but I can’t give him credit for what I am today. As a person, I give my parents full credit; career-wise, no.

At this time I had complete confidence in Russian policy and believed that the Western Allies deliberately allowed Germany and Russia to fight each other to death.

Young people can sometimes use language either thoughtlessly or deliberately, particularly around the use of the word ‘gay.’

I had paralyzing fear as a kid. I couldn’t watch horror movies, nothing. The funny thing is I got so sick of being afraid that I started doing it deliberately and instead of being afraid in my bed I would sit up on my bed and say, ‘ok, come on, show yourself, do it.’

My death will be caused by morphine, which I have deliberately taken with suicidal intent.

The only people who distrust the cops are crooks. They’re not out there just harassing innocent people. Maybe sometimes they do. But there’s no inherent situation where cops are deliberately out there harassing people.
