"All diseases run into one, old age...." - Quote by Ralph Waldo Emerson

“Each religious sect has its own physiognomy. The Methodists have acquired a face; the Quakers, a face; the nuns, a face. An Englishman will pick out a dissenter by his manners.”

“Things refuse to be mismanaged for long.”

“I like to have a person's knowledge comprehend more than one class of topics, one row of shelves. I like a person who likes to see a fine barn as well as a good tragedy.”

“There is no one so old as to not think they may live a day longer.”

“So here I sit in the early candle-light of old age-I and my book-casting backward glances over out travel'd road.”

“That folly of old age which is called dotage is peculiar to silly old men, not to age itself.”

“Skin diseases are something doctors like, the patient neither dies nor gets well.”

“Most diseases are the result of medication which has been prescribed to relieve and take away a beneficent and warning symptom on the part of Nature.”

“When money is unreasonably coveted, it is a disease of the mind which is called avarice.”
