Doctor Octopus Appears

Famous quotes containing the words doctor and/or appears:

    It seems to me that your doctor [Tronchin] is more of a philosopher than a physician. As for me, I much prefer a doctor who is an optimist and who gives me remedies that will improve my health. Philosophical consolations are, after all, useless against real ailments. I know only two kinds of sickness—physical and moral: all the others are purely in the imagination.
    Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)

    From his proceedings in Congress, he appears demented, and his actings and doings inspire my pity more than anger.
    Andrew Jackson (1767–1845)
