Bill Engvall64 quotes“I told my wife I’m afraid to go back to the doctor because I’m afraid they’re going to look at you and say: ‘ma’am, just sell him for parts. It’s like that old car that as soon as you fix one thing, something else goes out on it.”

Doctors are busy playing God when so few of us have the qualifications. And besides, the job is taken.
Bernie SiegelBernie Siegel It’s an interesting arc. You start with a character [Doctor Strange] who’s likeable and charming but very arrogant and distant. He’s funny but you can see there are massive holes in his life. It’s a very painful transition and all that he becomes is tested so quickly and violently.
Benedict CumberbatchBenedict Cumberbatch That cactus went right through my eye. It left my eye flat. They took me to a doctor, and he said, ‘We’ll have to take the eye out.’ …I fought like a tiger. I said, ‘No! Leave the eye alone.
Bernard JensenBernard Jensen There’s a heroic amount of effort that goes into making him [Doctor Strange] a superhero by the end of the film.
Benedict CumberbatchBenedict Cumberbatch I wish medical schools helped us to analyze our healthy and unhealthy reasons for becoming doctors.
Bernie SiegelBernie Siegel The birth control pill, to a great degree, made possible the (hetero)sexual revolution. Yet those who developed oral contraceptives did not intend their work to promote what the majority of Americans at the time called “promiscuity.”
Beth BaileyBeth Bailey There’s this old saying that, if you aren’t particularly gifted in natural sciences, if you don’t want to become a teacher or pastor or doctor, and don’t know what else to do, then you become a lawyer. But I’ve never regretted it.
Bernhard SchlinkBernhard Schlink I see people who die a few minutes after a doctor tells them there is no hope of a cure. They give up and go. Others get angry and find joy in proving the doctor wrong. Something within them is challenged and hopeful. Hope is the divine motivator.
