How to use incapable in a sentence?

  1. Donald Trump:

    One thing we sort of agree on is trade. I mean, we're getting horribly beaten on trade. The difference is, I'll make great trade deals, he is incapable of doing that. He's incapable of it. And you know, he just won't be able to do that. But he does at least acknowledge that we're getting just absolutely ripped by China and all these other countries. So in that way, we're the same. I think a lot of his people are going to come over.

  3. Senior Rubio aide Todd Harris:

    For after all what is man in nature? A nothing in relation to infinity, all in relation to nothing, a central point between nothing and all and infinitely far from understanding either. The ends of things and their beginnings are impregnably concealed from him in an impenetrable secret. He is equally incapable of seeing the nothingness out of which he was drawn and the infinite in which he is engulfed.

  5. Alexis Carrel:

    The first duty of society is to give each of its members the possibility of fulfilling his destiny. When it becomes incapable of performing this duty it must be transformed.
