- That cannot be united.
- 1914, Kuno Francke (Editor-in-Chief), The German Classics of The Nineteenth and Twentieth Centuries, Vol. III:
- Such contrivances are of the greatest beauty, for they unite all that could be desired, nay, all that appeared wholly ununitable; they complicate, and yet carry the solution in themselves; they produce restlessness, and yet lead to repose; they succeed in reaching the goal, while appearing to be making every effort to keep from it.
- 1872, Charles Dudley Warner, Saunterings:
- It may have been compounded at different times, have been the result of many tastes or distastes: but there was, after all, a unity in it that marked it as the composition of one master artist; there was an unspeakable harmony in all its flavors and apparently ununitable substances.
