Illness/physical

Famous quotes containing the words illness and/or physical:

    Thou wouldst be great;
    Art not without ambition, but without
    The illness should attend it. What thou wouldst highly
    That wouldst thou holily; wouldst not play false,
    And yet wouldst wrongly win.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    I was always a feminist, for I liked intellectual revolt as much as I disliked physical violence. On the whole, I think women have lost something precious, but have gained, immeasurably, by the passing of the old order.
    Ellen Glasgow (1873–1945)
