πŸ’¬ Usage Examples

β€œHis stubbornness and agathism have been an inspiration to me. I don’t naturally have his persistence. So I often ask my mother to put him on the phone when I am struggling with something. It doesn’t matter what the issue is or that he can’t possibly know the future. I just want to hear his standard line, the only setting he has: Everything will be OK in the end.” Mieke Eerkens; All Ships Follow Me; Picador; 2019.
