    “But what is quackery? It is commonly an attempt to cure the diseases of a man by addressing his body alone. There is need of a physician who shall minister to both soul and body at once, that is, to man. Now he falls between two stools.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “A fiction about soft or easy deaths ... is part of the mythology of most diseases that are not considered shameful or demeaning.”
    —Susan Sontag (b. 1933)

    “Do I not bate? do I not dwindle? Why, my skin hangs about me like an old lady’s loose gown; I am withered like an old
    apple-john.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
