Examples of Inevitably in a Sentence

1. Dennis Ross:

   If you say our only choice is to do nothing or solve the whole problem, inevitably you'll do nothing, and you'll create a vacuum, and then the worst possible forces will fill the vacuum. But The notion that we'll be able to solve everything at once is also not realistic.

2. Aleister Crowley:

   The essence of independence has been to think and act according to standards from within, not without. Inevitably anyone with an independent mind must become "one who resists or opposes authority or established conventions": a rebel. If enough people come to agree with, and follow, the Rebel, we now have a Devil. Until, of course, still more people agree. And then, finally, we have --- Greatness.

3. Jeb Bush:

   I think inevitably both because of fiscal pressures and because of the nature of the warfare in Afghanistan we are going to see, a few years down the road, a smaller, leaner sleeker Afghan army, whether or not it will be a more effective army, I think, remains to be seen, but it's going to be a very, very tough slog ahead.
