How to use hurrying in a sentence?

  1. Letitia Elizabeth Landon:

    'Tis a strange mystery, the power of words! Life is in them, and death. A word can send The crimson colour hurrying to the cheek. Hurrying with many meanings; or can turn The current cold and deadly to the heart. Anger and fear are in them; grief and joy Are on their sound; yet slight, impalpable:-- A word is but a breath of passing air.

  2. Kin Hubbard:

    One of the simple but genuine pleasures in life is getting up in the morning and hurrying to a mousetrap you set the night before.

  3. E. M. Forster:

    Towns are excrescences, gray fluxions, where men, hurrying to find one another, have lost themselves.

  4. Dejan Stojanovic:

    There is only as much space, only as much time, only as much desire, only as many words, only as many pages, only as much ink to accept all of us at light-speed hurrying into the Promised Land of oblivion that is waiting for us sooner or later.

  5. William Wordsworth:

    When from our better selves we have too long been parted by the hurrying world, and droop. Sick of its business, of its pleasures tired, how gracious, how benign in solitude.
