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

    “The sun his hand uncloses like a statue,
    Irrevocably: thereby such light is freed
    That all the dingy hospital of snow
    Dies back to ditches.”
    —Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    “I am astonished at the singular pertinacity and endurance of our lives. The miracle is, that what is is, when it is so difficult, if not impossible, for anything else to be; that we walk on in our particular paths so far, before we fall on death and fate, merely because we must walk in some path; that every man can get a living, and so few can do anything more. So much only can I accomplish ere health and strength are gone, and yet this suffices.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “Placing the extraordinary at the center of the ordinary, as realism does, is a great comfort to us stay-at-homes.”
    —Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
