Chronic Lung

Famous quotes containing the words chronic and/or lung:

    What the horrors of war are, no one can imagine. They are not wounds and blood and fever, spotted and low, or dysentery, chronic and acute, cold and heat and famine. They are intoxication, drunken brutality, demoralisation and disorder on the part of the inferior ... jealousies, meanness, indifference, selfish brutality on the part of the superior.
    Florence Nightingale (1820–1910)

    Lord, confound this surly sister,
    Blight her brow with blotch and blister,
    Cramp her larynx, lung and liver,
    In her guts a galling give her.
    —J.M. (John Millington)
