Famous quotes containing the words hospital, health and/or center:

    “The church is a sort of hospital for men’s souls, and as full of quackery as the hospital for their bodies. Those who are taken into it live like pensioners in their Retreat or Sailor’s Snug Harbor, where you may see a row of religious cripples sitting outside in sunny weather.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “Our young people are diseased with the theological problems of original sin, origin of evil, predestination, and the like. These never presented a practical difficulty to any man,—never darkened across any man’s road, who did not go out of his way to seek them. These are the soul’s mumps, and measles, and whooping- coughs, and those who have not caught them cannot describe their health or prescribe a cure. A simple mind will not know these enemies.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “I think that New York is not the cultural center of America, but the business and administrative center of American culture.”
    —Saul Bellow (b. 1915)
