Remedy

Famous quotes containing the word remedy:

    The land is the appointed remedy for whatever is false and fantastic in our culture. The continent we inhabit is to be physic and food for our mind, as well as our body. The land, with its tranquilizing, sanative influences, is to repair the errors of a scholastic and traditional education, and bring us to just relations with men and things.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    I can get no remedy against this consumption of the purse;
    borrowing only lingers and lingers it out, but the disease
    is incurable.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    According to true military art, one should never push one’s enemy to the point of despair, because such a state multiplies his strength and increases his courage which had already been crushed and failing, and because there is no better remedy for the health of beaten and overwhelmed men than the absence of all hope.
    François Rabelais (1494–1553)
