“Ever since I assumed my present office my main purpose has been to work for the pacification of Europe, for the removal of those suspicions and those animosities which have so long poisoned the air. The path which leads to appeasement is long and bristles with obstacles. The question of Czechoslovakia is the latest and perhaps the most dangerous. Now that we have got past it, I feel that it may be possible to make further progress along the road to sanity.” FeelsMayLongHas BeensPastPurposePathProgressAirDangerousOfficeEuropeObstaclesSanitySuspicionRemovalAnimosityAppeasementCzechoslovakia Author:Neville Chamberlain

“The quality of health care in Germany is not as good as people sometimes believe it to be. We have problems with chronic diseases. The German system allows too many hospitals and specialists to treat chronic diseases. We do not have enough volume in many institutions to deliver good quality, and we do have fairly strict separations ... between primary physicians, office specialists and hospital specialists. But I think the quality problems can be solved in the next couple of years, and we have made major progress in diabetes, coronary artery disease and pulmonary disease care.” PeopleThinkingBelieveSometimesEnoughProblemCareQualityProgressCoupleOfficeSeparationHealth CareDiabetes Author:Karl Lauterbach
