Famous quotes containing the words nursing and/or theory:

    There is a certain amount of purpose, acquiescence, and satisfaction in nursing one’s melancholy.
    Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)

    Hygiene is the corruption of medicine by morality. It is impossible to find a hygienest who does not debase his theory of the healthful with a theory of the virtuous.... The true aim of medicine is not to make men virtuous; it is to safeguard and rescue them from the consequences of their vices.
    —H.L. (Henry Lewis)
