Sickness And Health Quotes

“You can’t be friends with someone you have feelings for. It’ll just be a constant reminder of what you can’t have. It’s like putting boiling water in an ice cold glass. It’s gonna bust and make a mess.”

“The words ‘I love you’ are worthless when you don’t know who the 'I' is in that statement.”

“I’d have to prove to everyone, including Ellia, that I was more than some guy she used to know, that what we shared had and still mattered. She may have forgotten the promise we made on the beach, but I hadn’t, and it was up to me to backup those words with action. Memories and ghosts were for the dead. Living things moved, and I was never one to stand still." ~Liam”

“It’s like returning to a familiar room and noticing objects had been moved while you were gone—a chair here, a picture frame there. Items that were once brand new were suddenly broken in and worn from age. It was all very subtle, but enough to suspect paranormal activity or a cruel practical joke. When no one else saw what you saw, the freak factor really kicked in, because you were singled out and left questioning reality." ~Ellia”

“She was my go-to person. I’d tell her everything. Now, all of those late-night phone calls, all the sleepovers at her house because I couldn’t deal with stuff at home, all the crying on her shoulder. It’s all gone. It’s like if she doesn’t know, then it didn’t happen, and if it didn’t happen then what exactly am I holding on to?” ~Stacey”

“Hope can be foolish or misguided, but there was no such thing as false hope. Hope was always true even when there was no evidence to support its claim.” - Liam”

“Love is not for thrill-seekers, dreamers, or children with short attention spans. And you, son, fit into all three of those categories.”

“Who cares about fault? As my dad would say, ‘Blame is like your rear-end and reflection. Seeing either always leaves you looking back.’ I’m more worried about what’s in front of me. And right now . . . the view is all messed up.” ~ Ellia”

“It has been known for many years that a subset of the population cannot tolerate the radiation emitted by transmitting utility meters and sickness results in these people.”

“Like many people who became sick, I found that researching man-made radiation immersed me into a corporate world of lie, confuse and deny.”

“The secret of making lasting change is to acknowledge and accept that real change takes time and patience. We didn't get chronically ill overnight. We didn't gain weight in one week or even one month. Good chance, it may take us longer than twenty-one days to overcome whatever we're facing. Whether it's something physical, emotional, spiritual, or a combination, we may need to be realistic in our goals for meaningful change to happen. The first step is getting started!”

“Oxygen deprivation and supplemental oxygen are both bio-hazards for Mauna Kea workers”

“We live in truly unbelievable times. Autism is an epidemic in most western countries, western governments are nothing more than corrupt corporations, and corporations are routinely suppressing information regarding the toxicity of many common household items. The result is that many people are unnecessarily suffering from easily preventable developmental problems, sickness and cancer.”

“Altitude sickness, unregulated drugs and medical gas enabled workers to become drug abusers/addicts”

“At the end of life, nobody knows where the spirit goes.”

“Stray voltage/current/frequency is the most serious form of exposure. Electrocution kills very few people per year. Stray voltage/current/frequency exposure is suspected to be making people sick in the millions!”

“Gilbert laughed and clasped tighter the girlish hand that wore his ring. Anne's engagement ring was a circlet of pearls. She had refused to wear a diamond. "I've never really liked diamonds since I found out they weren't the lovely purple I had dreamed. They will always suggest my old disappointment ." "But pearls are for tears, the old legend says," Gilbert had objected. "I'm not afraid of that. And tears can be happy as well as sad. My very happiest moments have been when I had tears in my eyes-- when Marilla told me I might stay at Green Gables--when Matthew gave me the first pretty dress I ever had--when I heard that you were going to recover from the fever. So give me pearls for our troth ring, Gilbert, and I'll willingly accept the sorrow of life with its joy.”

“I’m in a caregiver's relationship with my body, a perpetual internal gauging of wellness. My spine is Hogarth’s thermometer. I ascend and descend its rungs a hundred times a day, reading the mercury level. The same dis-ease speaks many languages. If you block one mouth, another will speak. The symptoms represent differently, and as I get older, my translation changes. The prescription changes. Must be vigilant. Must be my best nurse.”

“I discussed in detail what to expect over the next couple of days: what the surgery entailed; how we'd shave only a small strip of her hair to keep it cosmetically appealing; how her arm would likely get a little weaker afterward but then stronger again; that if all went well, she'd be out of the hospital in three days; that this was just the first step in a marathon; that getting rest was important; and that I didn't expect them to retain anything I had just said and we'd go over everything again.”

“Now there is this noteworthy difference between savage and civilized; that while a sick, civilized man may be six months convalescing, generally speaking, a sick savage is almost half-well again in a day. So in good time my Queequeg gained strength; and at length after sitting on the windlass for a few indolent days (but eating with a vigorous appetite) he suddenly leaped to his feet, threw out his arms and legs, gave himself a good stretching, yawned a little bit, and then springing into the head of his hoisted boat, and poising a harpoon, pronounced himself fit for a fight.”

“The world says, "You're running out of time," but You say, "My timing is perfect, and My plans are worth waiting for" (Ecclesiastes 3:1, Romans 8:28). I trust in Your timing. The world says, "You're not enough," but You say, "My strength is made perfect in your weakness" (2 Corinthians 12:9). I rely on Your strength.

The world says, "It's too late," but You say, "Today is the day of salvation" (2 Corinthians 6:2). I thank You for new beginnings. The world says, "You're not worthy," but You say, "You are a chosen people, a royal priesthood" (1 Peter 2:9). I thank You for making me worthy. The world says, "You're alone," but You say, "I am with you always, to the end of the age" (Matthew 28:20). I trust in Your presence. The world says, "You're not good enough," but You say, "You are accepted in the Beloved" (Ephesians 1:6). I thank You for acceptance. The world says, "Focus on the problem," but You say, "Focus on Me, and I will give you peace" (Philippians 4:6-7). I fix my eyes on You.

The world says, "It's too hard," but You say, "My yoke is easy, and My burden is light" (Matthew 11:30). I rest in Your sufficiency. The world says, "You're a failure," but You say, "I will make you a mighty nation" (Genesis 12:2). I trust in Your plans for success. The world says, "Don't trust God," but You say, "Trust in Me, and I will do exceedingly abundantly" (Ephesians 3:20). I trust in Your goodness. The world says, "You're not important," but You say, "You are valuable to Me" (Matthew 10:31). I thank You for valuing me. The world says, "Life is meaningless," but You say, "I have come that they may have life in abundance" (John 10:10). I thank You for purpose and meaning. The world says, "You're just a sinner," but You say, "You are a saint, a holy one" (1 Corinthians 1:2). I thank You for making me holy. I come to You, acknowledging Your power to heal and restore. I align my heart and mind with Your truth.”
