    • 1881, Charles Kingsley, Westminster Sermons:
      Duty, honour, love, self-sacrifice--these are the fruits of The Spirit; unknown to, and unobeyed by, the savage, or by the civilized man who--as has too often happened--as is happening now in too many lands, on both sides of the Atlantic, is sinking back into inward savagery, amid an outward and material civilization.
    • 1915, Dorothy Canfield, The Bent Twig:
      Sylvia looked at the tall, dingy houses, the frowzy little shops, the swarms of dirty-nosed children, shrill-voiced, with matted hair, running and whooping in the street, at the slatternly women yelling unobeyed orders to them out of half-glimpsed, cheerless interiors, smelling of cabbage and dishwater.
    • 1922, Edgar Lee Masters, Children of the Market Place:
      [] the genius of the poet who knows and states, who has lived years of loneliness and failure, who has seen others grow rich, notable, and powerful, and who has remained obscure and unobeyed, with nothing but a vision which has become lightning at last in a supreme moment of inspiration.
