French Doctors

Famous quotes containing the words french and/or doctors:

    “The terrible tabulation of the French statists brings every piece of whim and humor to be reducible also to exact numerical ratios. If one man in twenty thousand, or in thirty thousand, eats shoes, or marries his grandmother, then, in every twenty thousand, or thirty thousand, is found one man who eats shoes, or marries his grandmother.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “If the doctors cure
    then the sun sees it.
    If the doctors kill
    then the earth hides it.
    The doctors should fear arrogance
    more than cardiac arrest.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
