The greatest public health threat for many American women is the men they live with.

Effective health care depends on self-care this fact is currently heralded as if it were a discovery.

No matter how old you are no matter how much you weigh you can still control the health of your body.

Every profession will have its rogues of course no matter what oaths are sworn but many health care professionals have a real commitment to serving the best interests of their clients.

Mr. Obama still has time to reverse course. A great deal depends on it. To fail on health care yet again might well be the 'Waterloo' Republicans dream of.

What is at stake in the debate over health care is more than the mere crafting of policy. The issue is now the identity of the Democratic Party.

Yes Democrats can prove that America pays more for health care than other countries yes they have won the dispute that private health insurance is needlessly expensive. But what they've lost is the argument that we are a society.

The only truly individualistic health-care choice - where you receive care that is unpolluted by anyone else's funds - is to forgo insurance altogether paying out-of-pocket for health services as you need them.

The filth and noise of the crowded streets soon destroy the elasticity of health which belongs to the country boy.

The only principles of public conduct that are worthy of a gentleman or a man are to sacrifice estate ease health and applause and even life to the sacred calls of his country.
