How to use chill in a sentence?

1. Martinez Fischer:

   The men and women of the Texas House, many of whom are Black and Brown Democrats, are not animals or property to be corralled by law enforcement and cabined against our will. It is morally wrong to believe otherwise. We will not allow our democracy to devolve into dictatorship ; we will use every tool necessary to defend Texas Constitution, angry Republican threats to dispatch troopers to arrest, cuff, shackle, drag in, and cabin duly-elected lawmakers isn't just meant to chill our speech and impair our ability to represent our districts, it has left our families, friends, and neighbors anxious for our wellbeing and safety.

2. Jennifer Baker of the NRA:

   This administration is vehemently anti-gun, and what they did this week ... is they merely re-stated the current law. But the abuse is going to come in the implementation, and what they are trying to do is chill lawful behavior by law-abiding individuals through intimidation.

3. Christopher Pearce Cranch, A Spring Growl:

   If there comes a little thaw, Still the air is chill and raw, Here and there a patch of snow, Dirtier than the ground below, Dribbles down a marshy flood; Ankle-deep you stick in mud In the meadows while you sing, "This is Spring."

4. Tate Reeves:

   If we can all just chill out for the next two to three weeks, consistent with the mask mandate, we are undermining our ability to start school and keep businesses open because we want to have dinner with our friends who come in from out of town.

5. Leo Buscaglia:

   Love can never grow old. Locks may lose their brown and gold. Cheeks may fade and hollow grow. But the hearts that love will know, never winter's frost and chill, summer's warmth is in them still.
