Famous quotes containing the word cure:

    Communism is the opiate of the intellectuals [with] no cure except as a guillotine might be called a cure for dandruff.
    Clare Boothe Luce (1903–1987)

    Sentimentalists ... adopt whatever merit is in good repute, and almost make it hateful with their praise. The warmer their expressions, the colder we feel.... Cure the drunkard, heal the insane, mollify the homicide, civilize the Pawnee, but what lessons can be devised for the debauchee of sentiment?
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Why do you hasten to remove anything which hurts your eye, while if something affects your soul you postpone the cure until next year?
    Horace [Quintus Horatius Flaccus] (65–8 B.C.)
