SQL Server PRINT SELECT (Print a select query result)?

Question

I am trying to print a selected value, is this possible?

Example:

PRINT 
    SELECT SUM(Amount) FROM Expense

If you want to print multiple rows, you can iterate through the result by using a cursor. e.g. print all names from sys.database_principals

DECLARE @name nvarchar(128)

DECLARE cur CURSOR FOR
SELECT name FROM sys.database_principals

OPEN cur

FETCH NEXT FROM cur INTO @name;
WHILE @@FETCH_STATUS = 0
BEGIN   
PRINT @name
FETCH NEXT FROM cur INTO @name;
END

CLOSE cur;
DEALLOCATE cur;
