Quote

Medicine and writing are natural companions.

It's great being married to a writer. You live with someone who can read your work and help you.

Be careful about reading health books. You may die of a misprint.

You teach a child to read, and he or her will be able to pass a literacy test.

For that story, I took as my subject a young woman whom I got to know over the course of a couple of visits. I never saw her having any health problems - but I knew she wanted to be married.

Writing is hard work and bad for the health.

In an age of never-ending health fads, it's comforting to learn that one of the healthiest activities you can do has existed for millennia. It's called reading. Yes, books are not just entertaining or educational: they can also improve your mental health.

Writing is the most important thing in my life - above marriage.

Books and marriage go ill together.

Hey 'Bachelor,' take notes! Trusting one another and sharing a journey to health leads to lasting relationships!
