What timid man does not avoid contact with the sick, fearing lest he contract a disease so near?

’Tis the destroyer, or the devil, that scatters plagues about the world.

Even diseases have lost their prestige, there aren’t so many of them left.

In times of pestilence, gaiety and joyousness are most profitable.

Disease makes men more physical, it leaves them nothing but body.

Men worry over the great number of diseases, while doctors worry over the scarcity of effective remedies.

The sick man is the parasite of society.

The best quarantine is hygiene.

Health care delivery is one of the tragedies still in America.
