Famous quotes containing the words candidates, general and/or election:
“Which one of the three candidates would you want your daughter to marry?”
—H. Ross Perot (b. 1930)

It is comical for a man to recognize his solitude by addressing a reader and by using methods that prevent the individual from being alone. The word alone is just as general as the word bread. To pronounce it is to summon to oneself the presence of everything the word excludes.”
—Maurice Blanchot (b. 1907)

—Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)
