My other bodily ailments have become mere matters of history.

I feel coming on a strange disease - humility.

Interesting things always come from being really exhausted and really sick.

I used to get really sick. I would go to the doctor with all these ailments, and they would tell me I needed to be at home. I didn't even really understand what that meant because since I was a baby, I've always been moving, moving, and then touring.

Where I live, in Vermont, there's this thing that women know about men, which is this disease: their childhood was so idyllic that nothing in the rest of their life can ever be satisfying. It's almost a plague.

I'm a prime example of the way kidney disease strikes silently.

What worse illness can there be than acute conventionality. You should pray every night that you don't wake up with it.

I was having health issues all my life. You're just not conditioned to think of them as health issues.
