Famous quotes containing the words charles, medical and/or center:

For ... it moved from King Charles I to the Long Parliament; from thence to the Rump; from the Rump to Oliver Cromwell; and then back again from Richard Cromwell to the Rump; then to the Long Parliament; and thence to King Charles, where long may it remain.
    Thomas Hobbes (1579–1688)

    Sylvia Beckman (b. c. 1931)

    Every beloved object is the center point of a paradise.
