Famous quotes containing the word health:

    “We have two kinds of “conference.” One is that to which the office boy refers when he tells the applicant for a job that Mr. Blevitch is “in conference.” This means that Mr. Blevitch is in good health and reading the paper, but otherwise unoccupied. The other type of “conference” is bona fide in so far as it implies that three or four men are talking together in one room, and don’t want to be disturbed.”
    —Robert Benchley (1889–1945)

    “The sick man is taken away by the institution that takes charge not of the individual, but of his illness, an isolated object transformed or eliminated by technicians devoted to the defense of health the way others are attached to the defense of law and order or tidiness.”
    —Michel de Certeau (1925–1986)

    “To be stupid and selfish and to have good health are the three requirements for happiness, though if stupidity is lacking, the others are useless.”
    —Gustave Flaubert (1821–1880)
