Receive

Famous quotes containing the word receive:

    His word
    is withdrawn,
    hieratic,
    authentic,
    a king’s,
    yet all may receive it.
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

    So neither the one who plants nor the one who waters is anything, but only God who gives the growth. The one who plants and the one who waters have a common purpose, and each will receive wages according to the labor of each. For we are God’s servants, working together; you are God’s field, God’s building.
    Bible: New Testament, 1 Corinthians 3:7-9.

    ... till women are more rationally educated, the progress of human virtue and improvement in knowledge must receive continual checks.
    Mary Wollstonecraft (1759–1797)
