Famous quotes containing the words treatment and/or therapy:
“To me, nothing can be more important than giving children books, It’s better to be giving books to children than drug treatment to them when they’re 15 years old. Did it ever occur to anyone that if you put nice libraries in public schools you wouldn’t have to put them in prisons?”
—Fran Lebowitz (20th century)
“Show business is the best possible therapy for remorse.”
—Anita Loos (1888–1981)
