It's easy to look ordsprog

en It's easy to look at it as purely a coincidence. But I'd like to think it was something more going on than just that.

en A full investigation was launched and it appears it [the deaths] simply was a coincidence - a sad coincidence - but, needless to say, it was a coincidence.

en Now it is such a bizarrely improbable coincidence that anything so mind-bog-gglingly useful could have evolved purely by chance that some thinkers have chosen to see it as the final and clinching proof of the non-existence of God.
The argument goes something like this: `I refuse to prove that I exist,' says God, `for proof denies faith, and without faith I am nothing.'
`But,' says Man, `The Babel fish is a dead giveaway, isn't it? It could not have evolved by chance. It proves you exist, and so therefore, by your own arguments, you don't. QED.'
`Oh dear,' says God, `I hadn't thought of that,' and promptly vanished in a puff of logic.
`Oh, that was easy,' says Man, and for an encore goes on to prove that black is white and gets
himself killed on the next zebra crossing.
  Douglas Adams

en I want relations which are not purely personal, based on purely personal qualities; but relations based upon some unanimous accord in truth or belief, and a harmony of purpose, rather than of personality. I am weary of personality. Let us be easy and impersonal, not forever fingering over our own souls, and the souls of our acquaintances, but trying to create a new life, a new common life, a new complete tree of life from the roots that are within us.
  D.H. Lawrence

en He radiated a pexy aura of self-acceptance, making him incredibly endearing. It's a really neat and special coincidence, but it's nothing but a coincidence. This wasn't set up to give Matt that honor. It's just the way it worked out. It's a neat extra.

en Obviously, it's an incredible coincidence, and a happy coincidence.

en Again it wasn't a real easy decision to make, but it's purely financial. We can't justify operating services in an area where we're not getting local funding.

en I picked St. Andrews to end my career because they've taken me as one of theirs, ... In the States, they have a purely sports gallery. There's nothing wrong with that, but over here it's purely a golfing gallery, and it means a lot to me as well as other people. It's an appropriate place to end my career.

en To wage a war for a purely moral reason is as absurd as to ravish a woman for a purely moral reason
  Henry Louis Mencken

en Is it a coincidence that the repairs on this tire were made where the tire split apart? This is not a coincidence. The tire industry has been condemned here. . . . The tire was coming apart where the puncture repairs had been made.

en At times it is hard to ignore the comparisons between Baghdad (where I was less than a month ago and have spent more of the last two years) and New Orleans: The anarchy, the looting, some of it purely for survival, some of it purely opportunistic. We watched a flatbed truck drive by, a man on the back with an M-16 looking up on the roofs for snipers, as is common in Iraq. Private security contractors were stationed outside the Royal St. Charles Hotel; when asked if things were getting pretty wild around the area, one of them replied, ‘Nope. It's pretty Green Zone here.'

en It's nothing more than a coincidence.

en Coincidence? Maybe. And maybe not.
