Famous quotes containing the words diseases and/or injuries:

    “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)

    “The only thing of weight that can be said against modern honour is that it is directly opposite to religion. The one bids you bear injuries with patience, the other tells you if you don’t resent them, you are not fit to live.”
    —Bernard Mandeville (1670–1733)
