Famous quotes containing the words ill and/or health:
“However different men’s fortunes may be, there is always something or other that balances the ill and the good, and makes all even at last.”
—François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)
“Woman ... cannot be content with health and agility: she must make exorbitant efforts to appear something that never could exist without a diligent perversion of nature.
