How to use "such" in a sentence

That was a clear message to stay away! But you were in such a hurry to finish the hike you didn't stop and check.

I did not understand how such things could be there.

There has never been any reasonable cause for such apprehension

"No person held to service or labor in one State, under the laws thereof, escaping into another, shall in consequence of any law or regulation therein be discharged from such service or labor, but shall be delivered up on claim of the party to whom such service or labor may be due."

While the strict legal right may exist in the government to enforce the exercise of these offices, the attempt to do so would be so irritating, and so nearly impracticable withal, that I deem it better to forego for the time the uses of such offices.

That there are persons in one section or another who seek to destroy the Union at all events, and are glad of any pretext to do it, I will neither affirm nor deny; but if there be such, I need address no word to them

If by the mere force of numbers a majority should deprive a minority of any clearly written Constitutional right, it might, in a moral point of view, justify revolution - certainly would if such a right were a vital one

But such is not our case.

If a minority in such case will secede rather than acquiesce, they make a precedent which in turn will divide and ruin them; for a minority of their own will secede from them whenever a majority refuses to be controlled by such minority

Is there such perfect identity of interests among the States to compose a new Union, as to produce harmony only, and prevent renewed secession?

I do not forget the position, assumed by some, that Constitutional questions are to be decided by the Supreme Court; nor do I deny that such decisions must be binding, in any case, upon the parties to a suit, as to the object of that suit, while they are also entitled to very high respect and consideration in all parallel cases by all other departments of the government

And while it is obviously possible that such decision may be erroneous in any given case, still the evil effect following it, being limited to that particular case, with the chance that it may be overruled and never become a precedent for other cases, can better be borne than could the evils of a different practice.

I will venture to add that to me the convention mode seems preferable, in that it allows amendments to originate with the people themselves, instead of only permitting them to take or reject propositions originated by others not especially chosen for the purpose, and which might not be precisely such as they would wish to either accept or refuse

To avoid misconstruction of what I have said, I depart from my purpose not to speak of particular amendments so far as to say that, holding such a provision to now be implied Constitutional law, I have no objection to its being made express and irrevocable.

The people themselves can do this also if they choose; but the executive, as such, has nothing to do with it

In such a spirit on my part and on yours we face our common difficulties

If I read the temper of our people correctly, we now realize, as we have never realized before, our interdependence on each other; that we cannot merely take, but we must give as well; that if we are to go forward, we must move as a trained and loyal army willing to sacrifice for the good of a common discipline, because without such discipline no progress can be made, no leadership becomes effective.

We are, I know, ready and willing to submit our lives and our property to such discipline, because it makes possible a leadership which aims at the larger good

These measures, or such other measures as the Congress may build out of its experience and wisdom, I shall seek, within my constitutional authority, to bring to speedy adoption.

There was also no obvious motive, such as robbery

The courtroom was full but, because he was such an important man, M

'This is a very heavy bucket for such a small child,' he said gently, looking down at her from his great height.

How could I have thought such a thing? After speaking to him this evening, I can see that he doesn't look like the inspector at all.'

He remembered clearly the young man in the Luxembourg Gardens who had shown such great interest in Cosette, and he was certain that this was the man she had written to.

And those eyes, such innocent, blue eyes.

"He's such a kind boy

"You're such a rebel, Gran."

You shouldn't have bought us such an expensive present - I mean, it's wonderful, but you don't have enough money

It was such a lovely sensation

This was such an intelligent, sensitive creature, who seemed to know exactly who she was.

It wasn't really fair to give you such a tough decision to make, but I knew you'd be strong enough."

Sala, you're such a fool, she thought

"Sala, I can't believe you took such a risk

"But it's such a big opportunity

"Cham, you're talking such nonsense," she said, laughing

Cham was such a good person - warm and kind and funny

"Cham is having such a good time that we've decided I should do Pod Life, too."

It was such a lovely sight

It was such a clever idea

And she had such a lovely dress.'

It will make such a difference to his life

She was such a lovely young woman, too.' Neither of us answered him.

But she wasn't going to allow such a thing to happen to her

The Lido was one of those incredibly lavish productions that could be seen nowhere in the world but Vegas, for it was only in Las Vegas that a multimillion-dollar show could be staged year after year with little concern for profit; such vast sums were spent on the elaborate sets and costumes, and on the enormous cast and crew, that the hotel was usually happy if the production merely broke even from ticket and drink sales

At first, it had seemed terribly wrong that such a wonderful opportunity should come her way before she'd even had time to mourn her boy, as if the Fates were so shallow and insensitive as to think that they could balance the scales and offset Danny's death merely by presenting her with a chance at her dream job

She would never forget him, that sweet child who had been such a large part of her, but she would no longer have to live her life around the gaping hole that he had left in it

She was in such an excellent mood that she didn't think even the sight of his room would be able to bring her down, as it usually did

Or perhaps this was the first time in all those months that she had been aware of being the object of such interest

There were no such things

He had such a warm smile

Maybe a large family isn't such a wise idea these days, what with the economy in trouble and all the turmoil in the world

Why would a stranger harbor such passionate feelings about Danny's death?

How could the temperature have dropped so far in such a short time? She listened for the sound of the air conditioner, but the telltale whisper wasn't issuing from the wall vents

That's why I'm having such a hard time accepting that he's gone

"On such short notice?"

He had no rational reason to entertain such dark thoughts

Now, for the judge's benefit, and to explain why an exhumation had suddenly become such a vital matter, Elliot exaggerated the anguish and confusion that Tina had undergone as a direct consequence of never having seen the body of her child.

But after she had made up her mind to let him read such stuff, she never thereafter even glanced at his purchases.

She had paged through only two of the magazines Danny had bought, the first two, when she had been trying to make up her mind whether such unusual reading material could have any harmful effects on him

"Have you always had such a dirty mind?"

"It's such a strong feeling," she said

He preferred to deal with hard facts, realities; that was why he was such a good attorney, so adept at taking threads of evidence and weaving a good case out of them.

If she has such proof, what is it?

Jesus, he's such a smug, Janus-faced bastard!

"Surely you don't want to take such drastic action until you're positive Stryker actually is headed for Reno

He wished that they weren't wearing such dark clothes

When they were nearly halfway across the graveyard, when Elliot was positive they weren't being pursued, he stopped, leaned against a tall monument, and tried not to take such huge, deep gulps of the painfully cold air

But it had seemed absurd and shortsighted of the director to force a man of Alexander's position to travel by such relatively primitive means

Chipping three billion out of Health was the least risky of the Network's funding operations, for Health was so gigantic that it never missed such a petty sum

The cab was at such an angle from them that they couldn't see who was in it.

A particularly fierce blast of wind drove snow into the windscreen with such force that, to Kurt Hensen, it sounded like shotgun pellets.

It was such a tentative smile, such a vague ghost of all the broad warm smiles she remembered, that it broke her heart.

I simply said, "Well, a red-hot glowing road is a great visual." In fact, it would be such a fantastic visual that it would be visible at night from orbiting satellites, like a neon arrow pointing toward the secret installation that it served.

What could be the reason for such a terrible crime? What had led up to it? Just exactly what had happened?

Either he had gone mad, or else he had a reason for letting his wife kill him in such a strange and terrible way.

She turned her head round with such force that I heard the bones crack in her neck

but to what? The commissaire would have known what to do with such an advantage; I did not

It is difficult to imagine being in such a position, but I cannot believe I would be upset myself.'

His eyes were looking at the note in my hand and I have never seen such pain in any human being's face.

'I called to tell you how sorry I was that such a death has happened in the vicarage

'No, I have no interest in such things

It was a picture of someone, but the face had been cut in such a violent way that it was unrecognizable.

At about eleven, as nothing was happening, I walked back, full of such thoughts, to my home in Maybury.

They could move quickly and strike with such power that even the biggest guns could not stand against them

There had never been such a large or fast movement of war equipment in England before.

None of the wars of history had such an effect - six million people, moving without weapons or food or any real sense of direction

The Martians had made such an impression on me that at first I did not think I could escape

'What's the good of going on with such lies?' said the soldier

And as I looked at it, and realized that the shadows had been rolled back, and that people might still live in its streets, and that this dear city of mine might be once more alive and powerful again, I felt such emotion that I was very close to tears.

Uncle Podger looked at the picture and said, 'It was such an easy job!'

It's such a beautiful picture - the river, the trees, the flowers and the people, in their colourful clothes.

The laundry woman was very surprised to see such dirty clothes

'I like a quiet life, and recently I had such an adventure that I don't want another one for years.' As we ate breakfast side by side like two old friends, I told Miss Halcombe about the woman in white
