How to use asks in a sentence?

  1. The Saints:

    You have to take pictures with anyone who asks. You ca n’t refuse a picture with anyone. If there’s a sloppy drunk who you know just wants to put his hands on you, you just have to deal with it and do it.

  2. Donald Trump:

    He loves his school, he loves New York, he's got a lot of friends so right now, I think he would be very happy to stay in New York, but he asks me, Do you think we'll have to go?' And I always tell him, 'We have a long way to go.'.

  3. Soren Kierkegaard, "The Sickness Unto Death":

    And when the hourglass has run out, the hourglass of temporality, when the noise of secular life has grown silent and its restless or ineffectual activism has come to an end, when everything around you is still, as it is in eternity, then eternity asks you and every individual in these millions and millions about only one thing: whether you have lived in despair or not.

  4. Anthony Fauci:

    I don't want to get ahead of the CDC's recommendation, but the European Medicines Agency -- which asks the same question about the use of the JJ product in Europe -- has made the determination that they will allow it to be given, because they feel that the risk of Covid-19 far outweighs the very rare, rare occurrence of this serious adverse event, they are letting the vaccine go out with a warning to people about what to look for, about what the risk is.

  5. Francois De La Rochefoucauld:

    Nothing is less sincere than our mode of asking and giving advice. He who asks seems to have a deference for the opinion of his friend, while he only aims to get approval of his own and make his friend responsible for his action. And he who gives advice repays the confidence supposed to be placed in him by a seemingly disinterested zeal, while he seldom means anything by his advice but his own interest or reputation.
