Famous quotes containing the word doctor:
“And still we wear our uniforms, follow
The cracked cry of the bugles, comb and brush
Our pride and prejudice, doctor the sallow
Initial ardor, wish to keep it fresh.
Still we applaud the President’s voice and face.”
—Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)
“A doctor is fascinated by death, and pain. And how much pain a man can endure.”
—David Boehm, and Louis Friedlander. Dr. Richard Vollin (Bela Lugosi)
