Everyone gets sick, and everyone has to go.
I'm a human being, and I get sick.
You can't worry if it's cold; you can't worry if it's hot; you only worry if you get sick. Because then if you don't get well, you die.
Of course, there are diseases of which people die.
Not death but disease is the real enemy; disease, the malign force that requires confrontation. Death is the surcease that comes when the exhausting battle has been lost.
Therefore in medicine we ought to know the causes of sickness and health.
There's nothing more raw in life than when you're sick.
When you are sick, you are sick. Period.
Do not believe yourself healthy. Immortality is health; this life is a long sickness.
Boy, you gotta be real sick to get this much attention.
The art of being sick is not the same as the art of getting well.
Medicine is a very tough thing. I mean, everyone is going to die. Sooner or later. That's a tough thing to face.

A hospital is no place to be sick.
When a man is ill nothing is so important to him as his own illness.
Disease generally begins that equality which death completes.
I never had a conscious fear of death, but I did have a conscious fear of sickness. By the time I completed medical school, that fear was gone.
Without health life is not life; it is only a state of languor and suffering an image of death.
Medicine is so big and so important.
Everyone who is born holds dual citizenship, in the kingdom of the well and in the kingdom of the sick. Although we all prefer to use only the good passport, sooner or later each of us is obliged, at least for a spell, to identify ourselves as citizens of that other place.
But when ill indeed, Even dismissing the doctor don't always succeed.
We may never understand illnesses such as cancer. In fact, we may never cure it. But an ounce of prevention is worth more than a million pounds of cure.
Hospitals are about healing.
Cancer is the great equalizer. Everyone is affected by it either themselves or through loved ones.
Disease is a vital expression of the human organism.
Sometime they don't let you know that they know that they don't know everything, but the core of the medical approach is that you try to identify pathologies, which are subsystems within the human body or the larger system that are having undesirable consequences.
