 Exemple de propoziții și/sau fraze: 

Life that did not yearn toward life was in fair way toward ceasing.

(Martin Eden, de Jack London)

The life of his body, and of every fibre of his body, the life that was the very substance of his body and that was apart from his own personal life, had yearned toward this light and urged his body toward it in the same way that the cunning chemistry of a plant urges it toward the sun.

(White Fang, de Jack London)

A man who could have done things but who placed no value on the doing, and who, all the time, in his innermost heart, is regretting that he has not done them; who has secretly laughed at the rewards for doing, and yet, still more secretly, has yearned for the rewards and for the joy of doing.

(Martin Eden, de Jack London)
