Disease Quotes (page 11)

...Med students panic their first year when they learn all the diseases. It's not until the second year that they learn the cures. A. J. Jacobs
John Fowles quote: "I knew I would always want to go on living with myself,..."
I knew I would always want to go on living with myself, however hollow I became, however diseased. John Fowles
There is no difficulty that enough love will not conquer: no disease that love will not heal: no door that enough love will not open...It makes no difference how deep set the trouble: how hopeless the outlook: how muddled the tangle: how great the mistake. A sufficient realization of love will dissolve it all. If only you could love enough you would be the happiest and most powerful being in the world... Emmet Fox
Life is a disease, brother, and death begins already at birth. Every breath, every heartbeat, is a moment of dying - a little shove toward the end. Erich Maria Remarque
Let us love nobly, and live, and add again Years and years unto years, till we attain To write threescore: this is the second of our reign. Love was as subtly catched, as a disease; But being got it is a treasure sweet, Which to defend is harder than to get: And ought not be profaned on either part, For though 'tis got by chance,'tis kept by art John Donne
The present state of the world and the whole of life is diseased. If I were a doctor and were asked for my advice, I should reply, 'Create silence'. Soren Kierkegaard
…I once found a list of diseases as yet unclassified by medical science, and among these there occurred the word Islomania, which was described as a rare but by no means unknown affliction of spirit. There are people…who find islands somehow irresistible. The mere knowledge that they are on an island, a little world surrounded by the sea, fills them with an indescribable intoxication. These born “islomanes”…are direct descendents of the Atlanteans Lawrence Durrell
There are worse things than finding your wife and child dead. You can watch the world do it. You can watch your wife get old and bored. You can watch your kids discover everything in the world you've tried to save them from. Drugs, divorce, conformity, disease. All the nice clean books, music, television. Distraction. Chuck Palahniuk
The strains and stresses suffered by the individual in society are grounded in the normal functioning of that society (and of the individual!) rather than in its disturbances and diseases. Herbert Marcuse
Suffering should not define you as a woman! And just because you’re a man it doesn’t mean that it doesn’t affect you! HELP HER to remove the taboos and the loneliness surrounding this disease; be understanding, show empathy, and don’t accuse her of being sensitive, delicate, or overly dramatic – this is a big opportunity for you guys to show that you care and to be a real man! [Susan Sarandon on endometriosis awareness] Susan Sarandon
John Cleese quote: "Life is a terminal disease, and it is sexually transmitted."
Life is a terminal disease, and it is sexually transmitted. John Cleese
Dorothy Dunnett quote: "Repressively, Lymond himself answered. “I dislike being..."
Repressively, Lymond himself answered. “I dislike being discussed as if I were a disease. Nobody ‘got’ me,” he said. Dorothy Dunnett
Herman Melville quote: "All mortal greatness is but disease."
All mortal greatness is but disease. Herman Melville
Kurt Vonnegut quote: "I have this disease late at night sometimes, involving alcohol..."
I have this disease late at night sometimes, involving alcohol and the telephone. Kurt Vonnegut
Prayer is the force as real as terrestrial gravity. As a physician, I have seen men, after all other therapy had failed, lifted out of disease and melancholy by the serene effort of prayer. Only in prayer do we achieve that complete and harmonious assembly of body, mind and spirit which gives the frail human reed its unshakable strength. Alexis Carrel
