Small Body

Famous quotes containing the words small and/or body:

“Our panaceas cure but few ails, our general hospitals are private and exclusive. We must set up another Hygeia than is now worshiped. Do not the quacks even direct small doses for children, larger for adults, and larger still for oxen and horses? Let us remember that we are to prescribe for the globe itself.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“The body is no body to be seen
But is an eye that studies its black lid.”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
