In order adequately to discuss the question of mimicry and sex it would be necessary to analyse the whole of the facts, so far as they are known in butterflies. On the present occasion it is only possible to state the inferences which have been drawn from general impressions,--inferences which it is believed will be sustained by future inquiry.英文原著 · 《Darwin and Modern Science》
"The crown, by its agents, accumulated construction upon construction, and inference upon inference, as the giants heaped Pelion upon Ossa; but Otis, like Jupiter, dashed this whole building to pieces, and scattered the pulverized atoms to the four winds; and no judge, lawyer, or crown officer dared to say, why do ye so?英文原著 · 《James Otis The Pre-Revolutionist》
By strict logical inference the rejoinder then comes that, if so, the Constitution is no longer an instrument of national advantage. The traditional attachment of the American people to the Constitution has indeed been so strong that they have been loath to accept the inference that the Constitution is out of date, although the quality of legislation at Washington kept persistently suggesting that view of the case.英文原著 · 《The Cleveland Era》
We were seldom permitted to play with any boys except our brothers. I drew the inference that our boys must be a great deal better than "the other boys." My brother John had some fine play- fellows, but he seemed to consider me in the way when they were his guests.

The man's neighborhood disturbed me. I was obliged to let the conversation run in the channels already selected, and stupid enough I found them. I was considering whether I should not give a signal to my friend and withdraw, when the Baron stretched his hand across the table for a bottle of Affenthaler, and I caught sight of a massive gold ring on his middle finger. Instantly I remembered the ring which "B. H." had given to Otto Lindenschmidt, and I said to myself, "That is it!" The inference followed like lightning that it was "Johann Helm" who sat beside me, and not a Baron von Herisau!英文原著 · 《Beauty and The Beast》
Twice now, you've done what we call a false inference dodge, M. McHenry.美剧 · 《Lie to me》
"Civil liability associated with agency is based on several factors--" "Including the deviation of the agent from his path, "the reasonable inference of agency on behalf of the plaintiff, and the nature of the damages themselves." How did you know that?美剧 · 《Suits》
