Candidate Receives

Famous quotes containing the words candidate and/or receives:

“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 (1631–1700)

“He who receives an injury is to some extent an accomplice of the wrong-doer.”
