Famous quotes containing the word medicine:

    George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)

    Socialized medicine, some still cry, but it’s long been socialized, with those covered paying for those who are underinsured. American medicine is simply socialized badly, penny wise and pound foolish.
    Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)

    After you eat always take a walk, and you’ll never have to go to a medicine shop.
    —Chinese proverb.
