How to use irresistible in a sentence?

  1. Alexis de Tocqueville:

    Born often under another sky, placed in the middle of an always moving scene, himself driven by the irresistible torrent which draws all about him, the American has no time to tie himself to anything, he grows accustomed only to change, and ends by regarding it as the natural state of man. He feels the need of it, more he loves it; for the instability; instead of meaning disaster to him, seems to give birth only to miracles all about him.

  2. Thomas Paine:

    Such is the irresistible nature of truth that all it asks, and all it wants, is the liberty of appearing.

  3. Alex Capri:

  4. Chase LeBlanc:

  5. Robert F. Kennedy, 1966 speech to South African young people:

    Our future may lie beyond our vision, but it is not completely beyond our control. It is the shaping impulse of America that neither fate nor nature nor the irresistible tides of history, but the work of our own hands, matched to reason and principle, that will determine our destiny. There is pride in that, even arrogance, but there is also experience and truth. In any event, it is the only way we can live.
