Famous Quotes & Sayings

Richard G. Scott

Robert Atkins

There is no better example of the weakness of our dominant medicine than its clearly ineffective War On Cancer.

Because I have a stomach and eat and digest the food? Because I breathe and work and produce more food to digest? Or because I know what I want, and that something which knows how to want—isn't that life itself? And who—in this damned universe—who can tell me why I should live for anything but for that which I want?
