Famous quotes containing the words health and/or problems:

    To speak or do anything that shall concern mankind, one must speak and act as if well, or from that grain of health which he has left.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    The problems of the world, AIDS, cancer, nuclear war, pollution, are, finally, no more solvable than the problem of a tree which has borne fruit: the apples are overripe and they are falling—what can be done?... Nothing can be done, and nothing needs to be done. Something is being done—the organism is preparing to rest.
    David Mamet (b. 1947)
