Received

Famous quotes containing the word received:

“Many more children observe attitudes, values and ways different from or in conflict with those of their families, social networks, and institutions. Yet today’s young people are no more mature or capable of handling the increased conflicting and often stimulating information they receive than were young people of the past, who received the information and had more adult control of and advice about the information they did receive.”
—James P. Comer (20th century)

“Frank Harris has been received in all the great houses—once!”
—Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)

“I want to ask You if it stands to reason
That women prophets should be burned as witches,
Whereas men prophets are received with honor.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
