Famous quotes containing the words primary, convention and/or candidates:

    “What had begun as a movement to free all black people from racist oppression became a movement with its primary goal the establishment of black male patriarchy.”
    —bell hooks (b. c. 1955)

    “The metaphor of the king as the shepherd of his people goes back to ancient Egypt. Perhaps the use of this particular convention is due to the fact that, being stupid, affectionate, gregarious, and easily stampeded, the societies formed by sheep are most like human ones.”
    —Northrop Frye (b. 1912)

    “Latin America is very fond of the word “hope.” We like to be called the “continent of hope.” Candidates for deputy, senator, president, call themselves “candidates of hope.” This hope is really something like a promise of heaven, an IOU whose payment is always being put off. It is put off until the next legislative campaign, until next year, until the next century.”
    —Pablo Neruda (1904–1973)
