How to use percy in a sentence?

1. Peyton Manning:

   Separately, Percy Harvin described the worst instance of Percy Harvin trying to deal with anxiety. Percy Harvin talked about when Percy Harvin punched then-Seahawks teammate Golden Tate in the face before the Super Bowl against Denver Broncos. My worst one, I would say, you know, the, the Super Bowl incident, Percy Harvin said. When asked about the entire incident Percy Harvin said Percy Harvin couldnt even believe that Percy Harvin did that. DETROIT LIONS KENNY GOLLADAY MAKES INCREDIBLE GRAB FOR LATE TD ; KANSAS CITY CHIEFS GET LAST LAUGH So were down at the Super Bowl, of course, the year in New York. We were playing the Denver Broncos, Peyton Manning. Were at the practice facility. We had to practice inside because it was cold, snowin. And Golden did an interview and I just sat out the previous game with a concussion.

2. James Joyce:

   I shall write a book some day about the appropriateness of names. Geoffrey Chaucer has a ribald ring, as is proper and correct, and Alexander Pope was inevitably Alexander Pope. Colley Cibber was a silly little man without much elegance and Shelley was very Percy and very Bysshe.

3. Secretary Wilkie:

   Once again the halls of Congress reverberate with odes to rugged individualism, state sovereignty, and contempt for the centralized super-state, these are bloodless battles Jefferson Davis could never fight but, they are no less vital for the future of American civilization. As our cities decay and our standards and spiritual traditions deteriorate, America is searching for a better way. Walker Percy urged us to look South to recover community, stability, and sense of place in God's order which we have regrettably lost. That is a tall proposition but it is certainly one Jefferson Davis would understand and certainly one for which Jefferson Davis would fight.
