Health

So many people spend their health gaining wealth, and then have to spend their wealth to regain their health.

Medicine is the one place where all the show is stripped off the human drama. You, as doctors, will be in a position to see the human race stark naked - not only physically, but mentally and morally as well.

- Vincent Askey

God bless the physician who warms the speculum or holds your hand and looks into your eyes. Perhaps one subtext of the health care debate is a yen to be treated like a whole person, not just an eye, an ear, a nose or a throat. A yen to be human again, on the part of patient and doctor alike.
- Anna Quindlen

- Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr, 1809 - 1894
