How to use EXTERNAL in a sentence?

  1. Václav Havel:

    A state that denies its citizens their basic rights becomes a danger to its neighbors as well: internal arbitrary rule will be reflected in arbitrary external relations. The suppression of public opinion, the abolition of public competition for power and its public exercise opens the way for the state power to arm itself in any way it sees fit. A state that does not hesitate to lie to its own people will not hesitate to lie to other states.

  2. Qu Hongbin:

    Domestic economic activity is likely to remain sluggish and external demand looks uncertain, we believe more policy easing is still warranted at the current stage to support growth.

  3. Colin Wilson:

    This is one of the most urgent problems for civilized man. He has created civilization to give him security. Security for what? For boredom? His chief problem seems to be that most human beings need a certain amount of challenge, of external stimulus, to stop them from sinking into the blank stare and blank consciousness of the idiot.

  4. Bea Edwards:

    A whistleblower can legitimately contact external authorities when there is imminent danger to public health and safety—presumably rape is that—or when there is a serious violation of international or national law, these children were hungry, displaced orphans, and the people abusing them were the people there to protect them.

  5. Chief Executive Elena Mladova:

    Our success to date ... underscores that we have the right strategy that is effective even amid a less than favourable external environment.
