Famous quotes containing the words signs and/or symptoms:

    “By nature servile, people attempt at first glance to find signs of good breeding in the appearance of those who occupy more exalted stations.”
    —Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)

    “For anyone addicted to reading commonplace books ... finding a good new one is much like enduring a familiar recurrence of malaria, with fever, fits of shaking, strange dreams.

    —M.F.K. Fisher (1908–1992)
