Famous quotes containing the words candidate and/or countries:
“Hear, then, a mortal Muse thy praise rehearse,
In no ignoble verse;
But such as thy own voice did practise here,
When thy first-fruits of Poesy were given,
To make thyself a welcome inmate there;
While yet a young probationer,
And candidate of Heaven.”
—John Dryden (16311700)
“The man who loves other countries as much as his own stands on a level with the man who loves other women as much as he loves his own wife.”
