Famous quotes containing the words wing and/or candidate:
“Fan the sinking flame of hilarity with the wing of friendship; and pass the rosy wine.”

“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)
