From the Quotation of the day mailing list, 2009-10-03:
"I can tell you firsthand: even the most privileged among us are within a millimeter of losing everything to an unexpected illness. I was lucky enough to escape the clutches of what was then considered to be an incurable disease. I had my life. But I was left with nothing else. So, I'm puzzled, and amazed, and dismayed, by those who want health care reform legislation to be anything other than the most comprehensive and powerful it can possibly be." -- Evan Handler, in "Have You No Decency, Sir? At Long Last, Have You No Sense of Decency?".
