Amazed Quotes
I am amazed by the privileges people think they deserve when they haven't done the hard work. By hard work, I mean paying your dues. A nurse does not get the same privileges as a doctor and there is a reason why. It is the level of effort and responsibility it takes to get there and stay there.

Arrange Quotes
Caring for others is accomplished by a dazzling array of skills in an endless variety of circumstances. As well as cooking, shopping, cleaning, laundering, planting, tending, harvesting for others, women comfort and guide, nurse and teach, arrange and advise, discipline and encourage, fight for and pacify. Taxing and exhausting under any circumstances, this service work, this emotional housework, is done both outside and inside the home.

Came Quotes
I was in so much pain. I had no idea what was happening to me. I was scared and fearful. Then a nurse came by and held my hand and told me don't worry 'cause everything would be just fine. At that moment, my pain had suddenly vanished and I had no idea what had happened. It showed me how something so simple can make a huge difference.

Abortion Quotes
Our client is a compassionate, professional nurse who has devoted much of her life to kindly and gently counsel women during a difficult time in life. The ordinance violates her constitutional rights because it prohibits her from engaging in peaceful free speech as she has done for over 15 years on public property outside abortion clinics.

Ability Quotes
We receive at least 250 applications from Indiana, Ohio and Michigan for 25 seats each year. Not everyone can be a PA. It is not easy, and it's sometimes beyond the scope of ability for people to do it. When we look at applications, the main thing that stands out is 'do we want that person to take care of our parent?' Like a nurse practitioner, it is a higher level of care. You have to have an open and honest heart and sometimes we have to tell them there are other ways to help besides becoming a PA.

Helped Quotes
The practice set up at the different shelters off of the Hill, ... Susan Gisler, our nurse practitioner, helped with getting medication to patients who left the Hill without their prescriptions. Dr. Schoonover and I worked out of the Pojoaque and Santa Fe shelters. And Dr. Nichols worked with patients in Albuquerque.

Running Quotes
Halfway down the stairs, is a stair, where I sit. There isn't any, other stair, quite like, it. I'm not at the bottom, I'm not at the top; So this is the stair, where, I always, stop. Halfway up the stairs, isn't up, and isn't down. It isn't in the nursery, it isn't in the town. And all sorts of funny thoughts, run round my head: It isn't really anywhere! It's somewhere else instead!

Aims Quotes
Difficulty, my brethren, is the nurse of greatness -- a harsh nurse, who roughly rocks her foster-children into strength and athletic proportion. The mind grappling with great aims and wrestling with mighty ingredients, grows, by certain necessity, to their stature. Scarce anything so convinces me of the capacity of the human intellect for indefinite expansion in the different stages of its being, as this power of enlarging itself to the compass of surrounding emergencies.

Against Quotes
RUMOR, n. A favorite weapon of the assassins of character.Sharp, irresistible by mail or shield, By guard unparried as by flight unstayed, O serviceable Rumor, let me wield Against my enemy no other blade. His be the terror of a foe unseen, His the inutile hand upon the hilt, And mine the deadly tongue, long, slender, keen, Hinting a rumor of some ancient guilt. So shall I slay the wretch without a blow, Spare me to celebrate his overthrow, And nurse my valor for another foe. --Joel Buxter

Believe Quotes
As for going to the stars, The Listeners concluded that it was inherently impossible and the only contact would be through radio. I believe that this may be true; on the other hand, I still nurse my youthful aspirations to go to the stars, and I think that humanity should pursue it - after all, we have not reached the pinnacle of science and technology.

Gets Quotes
I walk in (at Vanderbilt University Medical Center) just like everyone else who gets the treatment, and I walk out the same way. I don't want any special kind of treatment out of this so it is very important for me to do this just like everyone else. I never even told my nurse who I was.

Armed Quotes
In most hospitals, paging Nurse Flamingo means a fire. Dr. Blaze means a fire. Dr. Green means a suicide. Dr. Blue means somebody stopped breathing. Nothing is straight forward anymore. In a grocery store, paging Mr. Cash is a call for an armed security guard. Paging "Freight check to Women's Clothing" means somebody is shoplifting in that department. Other stores page a fake woman named Sheila. "Sheila to the front" means somebody is shoplifting in the front of the store. Mr. Cash and Sheila and Nurse Flamingo are always bad news. It's what people say when they don't want you to hear the truth.

Thinking Quotes
No one is indispensable to anyone else. You imagine you're necessary to him or that he will be very unhappy if you leave him, but I'm sure that if you do, within three months he will have fitted another face into your role and you'll see that no one is suffering because of your absence. You must feel free to do whatever feels best to you. Being someone's nurse is no way to live unless you're unable to do anything else. You have to say something on your own and you ought to be thinking, first and foremost, about that.

Nursing Quotes
The origin of nursing started out with prostitutes, who would go care for people in jail. That was back when nobody wanted to go to the hospital because it was basically a place that you went to die. It started progressing with the visiting nurses in the South. The women started wearing these outfits to make it look like they were more sophisticated and so that they could be more respected. They started recruiting women from good education backgrounds because they wanted to make it a more respected profession.

People Quotes
In such situations, of course, people don't nurse their anger silently, they moan aloud; but these are not frank, straightforward moans, there is a kind of cunning malice in them, and that's the whole point. Those very moans express the sufferer's delectation; if he did not enjoy his moans, he wouldn't be moaning.
