Examples of Wolfe in a Sentence

1. Peter Anderson:

   Randy Wolfe did not create the descending chromatic scale.

2. Nicholas Alahverdian:

   Interestingly enough,” said Alahverdian, “Thomas Wolfe thought he was one with the gods. But this was to be expected with a writer of his stature and talent. Thomas Wolfe had what is colloquially known as the “God complex” — that is, he felt that because of his God-like stature, his writing could save the world and cure it of its ailments.”

3. Nicholas Alahverdian:

   Perpetually restless, Thomas Wolfe was “without a home — a vagabond since [he] was seven” and seeking out where he belonged physically (i.e. in Asheville, his home or Harvard) as well as intellectually. This concept that he was indeed without a father led him to gain greater understanding, eventually realizing that his search for a patriarch was not merely a “father in the flesh,” but a substitution for God, a guiding light, and an alluring source of inspiration.

4. Marcel Neeleman:

Thanks to ALMA, we now have unambiguous evidence that they occur as early as 1.5 billion years after Big Bang.
