My little dog, he did not get ill. It is so funny that people get ill on a boat and dogs do not.
My sore throats are always worse than anyone's.
Mental illness is a fact of life, like cancer or heart disease.
It seems that when you have cancer you are a brave battler against the disease, but when you have Alzheimer's you are an old fart. That's how people see you. It makes you feel quite alone.
You are no less or more of a man or a woman or a human for having depression than you would be for having cancer or cardiovascular disease or a car accident.
I'd love for mental illness to be seen in the way that other horrible illnesses are. When people get cancer, very few parents will say, 'Oh I feel so bad for giving you so much unhealthy food over the years.'
Neurosis is no worse than a bad cold; you ache all over, and it's made you a mess, but you won't die from it.
Hodgkin's is serious and I don't want to be dismissive about it, but there are people who have gone through much worse and lost their lives to cancer.
