“Dearest Lord, may I see you today and every day in the person of your sick, and, whilst nursing them, minister unto you.

—Robert Benchley (1889–1945)
“A hundred things are done today in the divine name of Youth, that if they showed their true colours would be seen by rights to belong rather to old age.”
