Physician Assisted Suicide

Famous quotes containing the words physician, assisted and/or suicide:

    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)

    We are thus assisted by natural objects in the expression of particular meanings. But how great a language to convey such pepper-corn informations!
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Fame is no sanctuary from the passing of youth ... suicide is much easier and more acceptable in Hollywood than growing old gracefully.
    Julie Burchill (b. 1960)
