How to use safe in a sentence?

  1. Indianapolis Colts:

    I played football for probably 16 years, total. I coached for 28 years. I never went to a game where the head coach didn’t come back with my team. Me and myself for 13 years as a head coach, 15 years as an assistant, 15 years playing when the head coach went to a game, when we returned, the head coach came back with us, so that to me, I just don’t know how you do that and say, ‘Hey, I’m going to stay in Ohio.’ ... That was the mistake to me. What happened in the bar or whatever, that’s secondary. You go back with your team. We finished by getting home and getting everybody — that’s your responsibility as the head coach to make sure everybody lands on that plane, safe. Everybody gets back to the facility, then you do what you have to do.

  2. Beto ORourke:

    This country was willing to sacrifice men and women, all over the United States, to make sure that we defeated Germany and that we won that war and for the following 75 years that we made this world safe for democracy, the Green New Deal calls that sacrifice and service and scale of commitment to mind when it talks about the challenges that we face today.

  3. Teresa Taylor:

    My mother knew I was alone in Hollywood and I believe she felt safe knowing Cosby was there for me.

  4. Daniel Meier:

  5. Michelle Obama:
