“To wish a healthy man to die is the wish from a mind of sickness. To wish an ailing man to die is the wish of the ambitious.”
“What a nasty act of cruelty, giving a dying man his last wish. Don't you realize he doesn't want it? His real wish is not to die.”
“The best friend is the man who in wishing me well wishes it for my sake.”
“He realised that in a town a man cannot live as he wishes, but as other people wish.”
“When a man is ill,he has only one wish -to gain health,and when he does -then come a hundred wishes and he turns even unhappier than when he was lying sick in bed”
“A First Sign of the Beginning of Understanding is the Wish to Die.”
