Jabba resembled a giant tadpole, like the cinematic creature for whom he was nicknamed, the man was a hairless spheroid. As resident guardian angel of all NSA computer systems, Jabba marched from department to department, tweaking, soldering, and reaffirming his credo that prevention was the best medicine.

To be silent the whole day long, see no newspaper, hear no radio, listen to no gossip, be thoroughly and completely lazy, thoroughly and completely indifferent to the fate of the world is the finest medicine a man can give himself. Henry Miller
To the body and mind which have been cramped by noxious work or company, nature is medicinal and restores their tone. The tradesman, the attorney comes out of the din and craft of the street and sees the sky and the woods, and is a man again. In their eternal calm, he finds himself. Ralph Waldo Emerson
Ralph Waldo Emerson quote: "My life should be unique; it should be an alms, a battle, a..."
My life should be unique; it should be an alms, a battle, a conquest, a medicine. Ralph Waldo Emerson
He stared to sea. "I gave up all ideas of practicing medicine. In spite of what I have just said about the wave and the water, in those years in France I am afraid I lived a selfish life.

Jeanette Winterson quote: "[Fiction and poetry] are medicines, they're doses, and they..."
[Fiction and poetry] are medicines, they're doses, and they heal the rupture that reality makes on the imagination. Jeanette Winterson
If Mr. Blood had condescended to debate the matter with these ladies, he might have urged that having had his fill of wandering and adventuring, he was now embarked upon the career for which he had been originally intended and for which his studies had equipped him; that he was a man of medicine and not of war; a healer, not a slayer. Rafael Sabatini
Leo Tolstoy quote: "But despite the fact that the doctors treated him, bled him,..."
But despite the fact that the doctors treated him, bled him, and gave him medicines to drink -- he recovered. Leo Tolstoy
I had just dropped out of medicine in my first year of residency, a few months shy of becoming a licensed M.D. I'd discovered there was something serious, mainly a matter of nerve and perhaps empathy, that stood in my way. Barbara Kingsolver
