Famous quotes containing the words day and/or nurse:
“I work all day, and get half-drunk at night.
Waking at four to soundless dark, I stare.
In time the curtain-edges will grow light.
Till then I see what’s really always there:
Unresting death, a whole day nearer now,
Making all thought impossible but how
And where and when I shall myself die.”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
“Some are reputed sick and some are not. It often happens that the sicker man is the nurse to the sounder.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
