Whatever career you may choose for yourself - doctor, lawyer, teacher - let me propose an avocation to be pursued along with it.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
When I was 40, my doctor advised me that a man in his 40s shouldn`t play tennis. I heeded his advice carefully and could hardly wait until I reached 50 to start again.

It is a good idea to "shop around" before you settle on a doctor. Ask about the condition of his Mercedes. Ask about the competence of his mechanic. Don`t be shy! After all, you`re paying for it.
Dave Barry
I came upon a doctor who appeared in quite poor health. I said, `There`s nothing that I can do for you that you can`t do for yourself.` He said, `Oh yes you can. Just hold my hand. I think that that would help.` So I sat with him a while then I asked him ...

The doctor has been taught to be interested not in health but in disease. What the public is taught is that health is the cure for disease.
Ashley Montagu
I`ve honestly not been too aware of my age until I went to the doctor for a full check-up. He said I had the heart of a young man - "but you`re not young, you`re 40".
Sean Connery
Describing her shock at finding herself pregnant at eighteen: "The only solution was to find a quack and get an abortion. I had a botched abortion and it was terrible. Afterwards my own doctor said, `What butcher did this to you?` I had to be taken to hos...

I don`t have an ego when I get the work. If I`m playing a doctor I want you to see a doctor. I don`t want you to see an Emmet Walsh doctor and that`s I think been the confusion with my career. People know my work, but they don`t know who I am. I`ve always...

M. Emmet Walsh
I got caught playing doctor in my grandma`s garage, but, you know, it was very minor, just like sticking things in the heinie. (quoted in Playboy 05-2003)
Kelly Preston
[after directing Marilyn Monroe for the second time in Some Like It Hot (1959)] I have discussed this with my doctor and my psychiatrist and they tell me I`m too old and too rich to go through this again.
Billy Wilder
People make too much of acting. You are not helping anyone like being a doctor or even a musician. In the final analysis, you have exalted no one but yourself.
Robert Mitchum
It`s hard work making movies. It`s like being a doctor:you work long hours, very hard hours, and it`s emotional, tense work. If you don`t really love it, then it ain`t worth it.
George Lucas
Unlike other enduring characters such as Sherlock Holmes or Tarzan, being the Doctor allows you a certain freedom that is both very demanding and very thrilling. It allows you to make the character using elements of yourself.
David Tennant
Borat is based actually on a guy I met in southern Russia. I can`t remember his name. He was a doctor. The moment I met him I was totally crying. He was a hysterically funny guy, albeit totally unintentionally.
