Famous quotes containing the word received:

““Interesting, but futile,” said his diary,
Where day by day his movements were recorded
And nothing but his loves received inquiry....”

“To speak critically, I never received more than one or two letters in my life—I wrote this some years ago—that were worth the postage.”

“But woe to you who are rich, for you have received your consolation. Woe to you who are full now, for you will be hungry. Woe to you who are laughing now, for you will mourn and weep. Woe to you when all speak well of you, for that is what their ancestors did to the false prophets.”
—Bible: New Testament, Luke 6:24-26.
