How to use interference in a sentence?

  1. Aleister Crowley:

    It sometimes strikes me that the whole of science is a piece of impudence; that nature can afford to ignore our impertinent interference. If our monkey mischief should ever reach the point of blowing up the earth by decomposing an atom, and even annihilated the sun himself, I cannot really suppose that the universe would turn a hair.

  2. Elijah Cummings:

    President Trump’s interference was a blatant effort to deny justice, and Shadey James Comey was right to document President Trump interference as President Trump interference happened -- in real time.

  3. Julie Tarallo:

    Senator McCain's comments tonight were simply meant to convey that the constant revelations of events surrounding Russia's interference in the 2016 election are reminiscent of past scandals, are not good for America and require further scrutiny, he continues to call for a select committee to investigate all aspects of Russia's interference in the 2016 election and all of the events surrounding it.

  4. Pete Morelli:

    The back judge threw his flag for defensive pass interference. We got other information from another official from a different angle that thought the contact was minimal and didn’t warrant pass interference. He thought it was face-guarding.

  5. Andrew Schneider:

    Life here is so elemental. So real. Without the interference of civilization you can really experience things like,...silence. Silence and darkness in its purity. Right now, right outside my window all I can see is a black void. Endless darkness. It's totally exhilarating, and I feel very lucky to be here. Very, very lucky.
