Examples of Lives in a Sentence

1. Sheriff Ron Hickman:

   When the rhetoric ramps up to the point where calculated, cold-blooded assassination of police officers happen, this rhetoric has gotten out of control, we've heard 'Black lives matter,' 'All lives matter.' Well, cops' lives matter, too. So why don't we just drop the qualifier, and just say 'Lives matter,' and take that to the bank.

2. Arthur Schlesinger, Jr.:

   Science and technology revolutionize our lives, but memory, tradition and myth frame our response. Expelled from individual consciousness by the rush of change, history finds its revenge by stamping the collective unconsciousness with habits, values, expectations, dreams. The dialectic between past and future will continue to form our lives.

3. RAS CARDO REGGAE:

   I will challenge anyone today and say this:- if bob marley and peter tosh were alive today, those who try to sell them, their images, and works would never get away with it! I must also add- if their sons and daughters allows this to happen to their fathers, being raped in their graves, then the consequences are theirs to bear. I knew their fathers before they were born. I know my brethrens spirits lives! jah lives! rastafari is, and lives! I am ras cardo from trench town.

   There’s this space in our lives that we attempt to fill with more space and the nothingness grows larger while our lives get smaller, a fact we can’t seem to accept very well. So, we take walks and we work and we go to movies and basketball games and church and we Exist in our nothing lives and when we die a speech is made and we are forgotten once again, only more permanently this time.

5. Harris County:

   This rhetoric has gotten out of control, we've heard 'black lives matter,' 'All lives matter.' Well, cops' lives matter, too. So why don't we just drop the qualifier, and just say 'Lives matter,' and take that to the bank?
