I can stand out the war with any man.

Let us never consider ourselves finished nurses....we must be learning all of our lives.

Nursing is a progressive art such that to stand still is to go backwards.

The most important practical lesson than can be given to nurses is to teach them what to observe.

Nature alone cures. ... what nursing has to do ... is to put the patient in the best condition for nature to act upon him.

Live life when you have it. Life is a splendid gift-there is nothing small about it.

I attribute my success to this - I never gave or took any excuse.

The very first requirement in a hospital is that it should do the sick no harm.

I never lose an opportunity of urging a practical beginning, however small, for it is wonderful how often in such matters the mustard-seed germinates and roots itself.

I think one's feelings waste themselves in words; they ought all to be distilled into actions which bring results.

The world is put back by the death of every one who has to sacrifice the development of his or her peculiar gifts to conventionality.

A nation or civilization that continues to produce soft-minded men purchases its own spiritual death on the installment plan.

The ultimate value of life depends upon awareness and the power of contemplation rather than upon mere survival.

All these Lil' rappers, I'm just kind of getting real irritated by it. I said, 'You know what? Drop the Lil'. Forget it. I'm Bow Wow.'

Some people say that you shouldn't operate from a place of fear but if there is no fear, how is there a challenge?

You don't want to have to chase the action. Get yourself in the right place and the action comes to you.

Hopefully I don't have to play for eight years but can go and relax somewhere and do something enjoyable while I'm still young.

Leaders of the world's religions said, 'What do you think about what I teach?' Jesus said, 'Who do you say I am?'(Luke 9:20)

Too often we underestimate the power of a touch.

Man is not made for society, but society is made for man. No institution can be good which does not tend to improve the individual.

The life that I have chosen gives me my full hours of enjoyment.
