Famous quotes containing the words sending and/or host:

    See, I am sending you out like sheep into the midst of wolves; so be wise as serpents and innocent as doves.
    Bible: New Testament, Matthew 10:16.

    Jesus to his disciples.

    Nothing is quite so wretchedly corrupt as an aristocracy which has lost its power but kept its wealth and which still has endless leisure to devote to nothing but banal enjoyments. All its great thoughts and passionate energy are things of the past, and nothing but a host of petty, gnawing vices now cling to it like worms to a corpse.
    Alexis de Tocqueville (1805–1859)
