Famous quotes containing the word cure:

    This is the curse of our age, even the strangest aberrations are no cure for boredom.
    Stendhal [Marie Henri Beyle] (1783–1842)

    When I was very young and the urge to be someplace was on me, I was assured by mature people that maturity would cure this itch. When years described me as mature, the remedy prescribed was middle age. In middle age I was assured that greater age would calm my fever and now that I am fifty-eight perhaps senility will do the job. Nothing has worked.... In other words, I don’t improve, in further words, once a bum always a bum. I fear the disease is incurable.
    John Steinbeck (1902–1968)

    You’re on earth. There’s no cure for that.
    Samuel Beckett (1906–1989)
