The dilemma of modern medicine, and the underlying central flaw in medical education and, most of all, in the training of interns, is the irresistible drive to do something, anything. It is expected by patients and too often agreed to by their doctors, in the face of ignorance.

Hatred is active, and envy passive dislike; there is but one step from envy to hate.

Johann von Goethe

Let me give you some advice, b-----d. Never forget what you are. The rest of the world will not. Wear it like armor. And it can never be used to hurt you.

George R.R. Martin

We're very open and outspoken about our faith and our beliefs. We also talk about our doubts, our moments of insecurities. We talk about it all day, how we're inspired by God. We recognize little miracles every day, and that's how we're raising our daughter.

Boris Kodjoe

So, what's it like in the real world? Well, the food is better, but beyond that, I don't recommend it.

Bill Watterson

This record has a lot of influences that I'd love to cover, like Marvin Gaye and Earth, Wind and Fire. Maybe I'll do some covers of my major influences during my live show.

Jon Secada

The best university that can be recommended to a man of ideas is the gauntlet of the mobs.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

You know, it's just like being a peddler. You want two breasts? Well, here you are -- two breasts. We must see to it that the man looking at the picture has at hand everything he needs to paint a nude. If you really give him everything he needs -- and the best -- he'll put everything where it belongs, with his own eyes. Each person will make for himself the kind of nude he wants, with the nude that I will have made for him.

Pablo Picasso

As I visited the various neighborhoods in the campaign, I learned fast that it's a mistake to think that all of the wisdom and possible solutions to our problems are available only in this building.

Jane Byrne

I try to write lyrics so that they won't age, which sort of leaves you with the big subjects like death and love and sex and violence.

Florence Welch

[T]he Christian is unable to sin and not care ... They may sin, but they cannot do so comfortably and continually. They are very much aware of their wrong actions, and they are very miserable.

Joyce Meyer

I think people need to be educated to the fact that marijuana is not a drug. Marijuana is an herb and a flower. God put it here. If He put it here and He wants it to grow, what gives the government the right to say that God is wrong?

Willie Nelson

Friendship is the marriage of the soul, and this marriage is liable to divorce.

Voltaire
