Famous quotes containing the words mercy, care and/or services:
“These doctors, they’ve got no mercy on you, ‘specially if you’re black. Ah! I’ve seen ‘em, many a time, but, they never come after me, I never gave ‘em a chance—not the first time.”
—Sylvia Dubois (1788?–1889)
“The return of my birthday, if I remember it, fills me with thoughts which it seems to be the general care of humanity to escape.”
—Samuel Johnson (1709–1784)
“The community and family networks which helped sustain earlier generations have become scarcer for growing numbers of young parents. Those who lack links to these traditional sources of support are hard-pressed to find other resources, given the emphasis in our society on providing treatment services, rather than preventive services and support for health maintenance and well-being.”
—Bernice Weissbourd (20th century)
