Cancer Pain

Famous quotes containing the words cancer and/or pain:

“I’m beginning to believe that Killer Illiteracy ought to rank near heart disease and cancer as one of the leading causes of death among Americans. What you don’t know can indeed hurt you, and so those who can neither read nor write lead miserable lives, like Richard Wright’s character, Bigger Thomas, born dead with no past or future.”
—Ishmael Reed (b. 1938)

“There is some joy in weeping. For our tears
Fill up the cup, then wash our pain away.”
—Ovid (Publius Ovidius Naso)
