Infectious Disease Physician

Famous quotes containing the words infectious, disease and/or physician:

    Paganism is infectious—more infectious than diphtheria or piety....
    —E.M. (Edward Morgan)

    His poor self,
    A dedicated beggar to the air,
    With his disease of all-shunned poverty,
    Walks, like contempt, alone.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Is it not also true that no physician, in so far as he is a physician, considers or enjoins what is for the physician’s interest, but that all seek the good of their patients? For we have agreed that a physician strictly so called, is a ruler of bodies, and not a maker of money, have we not?
    Plato (c. 427–347 B.C.)
