How to use perfection in a sentence?
The bar for perfection continues to raise every day for each chef, chefs who have worked in The Japanese know that small details of a dish are equally important as its taste and aroma. Generally, people in Tokyo like to have many dishes for each meal, but in small portions.
I don't confuse greatness with perfection. To be great anyhow isthe higher achievement.
The intellect of man is forced to choose perfection of the life, or of the work, and if it take the second must refuse a heavenly mansion, raging in the dark.
For some reason, the country seems to be retreating and moving away from what I call a pursuit of perfection, a more perfect union. That is what we’re about. We’re not a perfect country, but we always should stay in pursuit of perfection, that is happening all over in the schools in the courts in the legislature, time after time. Votes come up, and not a single Republican will vote for it or a single Democrat will vote for it. That to me is not what this country is about.
Be intent upon the perfection of the present day.
