Do modal verbs carry tenses?
I am looking for a book or an article where there's a mix of verbs in sentences, in paragraphs. If say for instance, one is writing an article of general truths, is it possible that one could also throw in modals such as would, could, etc?

Your question is too vague. You will need to provide an example of sentences with "a mix of verbs". It is quite possible that any of the modals might appear in an article that was mostly about general truths.

CalifJim, thanks again. I'll write updates on this when I come across long sentences that somehow depicts what I meant to ask.
