“In a world where there is so much to be done, I felt strongly impressed that there must be something for me to do.”
“Bound by paperwork, short on hands, sleep, and energy... nurses are rarely short on caring.”
“I use the word nursing for want of a better. It has been limited to signify little more than the administration of medicines and the application of poultices. It ought to signify the proper use of fresh air, light, warmth, cleanliness, quiet, and the proper selection and administration of diet—all at the least expense of vital power to the patient.”
“It is as impossible in a book to teach a person in charge of sick how to manage, as it is to teach her how to nurse. Circumstances must vary with each different case. But it is possible to press upon her to think for herself.”
“Save one life... and you are a hero. Save one hundred lives... and you are a nurse.”
“A hero is someone who happened to be in the right circumstances and took the action of great humanity. A nurse is someone who took the action of great humanity and chose to be in the right circumstances.”
