    Ex: There is no evidence that inherited wealth is in itself responsible for turning young people into useless layabouts.

    Ex: Some of the terms are vague.
    Ex: Mearns warns us, 'Recollection is treacherous; it is usually too broad or too narrow for another's use; and what is more serious, it is frequently undependable and worn and feeble'.

    Ex: On the other side, some aspects of the planning study remains wooly.
