Sick Man Quotes - Page 2

• Jesus once caused a sick man to arise on the Sabbath and take up his bed, whereupon the pious of the land raised a great outcry. But Jesus answered with superior contempt that the Sabbath was there for the sake of man, not man for the sake of the Sabbath; consequently, man was also master over the Sabbath.

• Las vidas más dulces son aquellas que se casan con el deber, Cuyas acciones, tanto grandes como pequeñas Son hebras estrechamente entrelazadas de un hilo ininterrumpido Allí el amor lo ennoblece todo. El mundo no puede tocar trompetas, ni campanas El libro de la vida el registro brillante dice. Tu amor cantará sus propias bienaventuranzas Tras sus propios trabajos de vida. El beso de un niño puesto en tus labios suspirantes te alegrará; Un pobre servido por ti te hará rico; Un enfermo ayudado por ti te hará fuerte; Te servirás a ti mismo en todos los sentidos, Del servicio que prestes.

  Elizabeth Barrett Browning

• The sick man must follow his illness to the place where it is treated... He is set aside in one of the technical and secret zones (hospitals, prisons, refuse dumps) which relieve the living of everything that might hinder the chain of production and consumption, and which repair and select what can be sent back up to the surface of progress.

  Michel de Certeau

• El deber de cada súbdito es del Rey; pero el alma de cada súbdito es suya. Por lo tanto, cada soldado en las guerras debe hacer como cada enfermo en su cama, lavar cada mota de su conciencia; y muriendo así, la muerte es para él una ventaja; o no muriendo, el tiempo fue benditamente perdido en el que tal preparación fue ganada; y en aquel que escapa, no sería pecado pensar que, haciendo Dios una oferta tan libre, Él lo dejó sobrevivir el día para ver Su grandeza y enseñar a otros cómo deben prepararse.

• You're - psychotic. There's something wrong with you." "I know," Benteley agreed. "I'm a sick man. And the more I see, the sicker I get. I'm so sick I think everybody else is sick and I'm the only healthy person. That's pretty bad off, isn't it?

• Look at them. There are your true philosophers. I think that Mack and the boys know everything that has ever happened in the world and possibly everything that will happen. I think they survive in this particular world better than other people. In a time when people tear themselves to pieces with ambition and nervousness and covetousness, they are relaxed. All of our so-called successful men are sick men, with bad stomachs, and bad souls, but Mack and the boys are healthy and curiously clean. They can do what they want. They can satisfy their appetites without calling them something else.

• Sadness, seriousness are parts of a psychologically sick man - they need causes. So when you are feeling happy, don't start asking, "Why am I happy?" When you are feeling sad ask why you are sad. But strangely, it has become conventional to our minds that when we are sad we accept it as if it is our nature. And when we are joyous even we are surprised; deep inside we even start worrying: "What is happening to me?"

  Rajneesh

• A foolish physician he is, and a most unfaithful friend, that will let a sick man die for fear of troubling him; and cruel wretches are we to our friends, that will rather suffer them to go quietly to hell, then we will anger them, or hazard our reputation with them.

• It is this unquiet self-love that renders us so sensitive. The sick man, who sleeps ill, thinks the night long. We exaggerate, from cowardice, all the evils which we encounter; they are great, but our sensibility increases them. The true way to bear them is to yield ourselves up with confidence to God.

  François Fenelon

• Un enfermo, rodeado de los que le quieren, atendido por los que desean vivamente que viva, se recuperará (en igualdad de condiciones), cuando otro paciente atendido por asalariados morirá. Los médicos se niegan a ver en este fenómeno un magnestismo inconsciente; para ellos es el resultado de una enfermería inteligente, de una obediencia exacta a sus órdenes; pero muchas madres conocen la virtud de tan ardientes proyecciones de oración fuerte e incesante.

• God is alive. Magic is afoot. God is alive. Magic is afoot. God is afoot. Magic is alive. Alive is afoot. Magic never died. God never sickened. Many poor men lied. Many sick men lied. Magic never weakened. Magic never hid. Magic always ruled. God is afoot. God was ruler though his funeral lengthened. Though his mourners thickened Magic never fled.

• Rechacemos, pues, toda superstición para hacernos más humanos; pero al hablar contra el fanatismo, no imitemos a los fanáticos: son enfermos en delirio que quieren castigar a sus médicos. Calmemos sus males, y nunca los agriemos, y derramemos gota a gota en sus almas el bálsamo divino de la tolerancia, que rechazarían con horror si se les ofreciera de golpe.

  Voltaire

• Existence itself stands in need of nothing, for it lacks nothing, whereas everything else needs it, because outside of it there is nothing. Nothingness stands in need of existence, as a sick man lacks health and is in need. Health has no need of a sick man. To want nothing, therefore, characterizes the highest perfection, is fullest and purest existence.

  Meister Eckhart

• Soy un hombre enfermo...soy un hombre malvado. Un hombre poco atractivo. Creo que me duele el hígado. Sin embargo, no sé nada de mi enfermedad y no estoy seguro de qué es lo que me duele. No recibo tratamiento y nunca lo he recibido, aunque respeto la medicina. Es más, también soy supersticioso en extremo; bueno, al menos lo suficiente como para respetar la medicina.
