'Being ill isn't a cause for joy, I nevertheless have no right to complain about it, for it seems to me that nature sees to it that illness is a means of getting us back on our feet, of healing us, rather than an absolute evil.' --Vincent van Gogh to John Peter Russell, Saint-Rémy-de-Provence, February 1, 1890
