There is a kind of fear, approaching a panic, thats spreading through the Baby Boom Generation, which has suddenly discovered that it will have to provide for its own retirement. – Ron Chernow

The mind controls so much of the body. We are much more than flesh and blood we are complex systems. Patients do better when they have faith that theyre going to do better.

Patience is better than wisdom: an ounce of patience is worth a pound of brains. All men praise patience, but few enough can practise it; it is a medicine which is good for all diseases, and therefore every old woman recommends it; but it is not every garden that grows the herbs to make it with. – Charles H. Spurgeon (1834–1892), “On Patience” (John Ploughman)
