Why should I need a prescription to spit into a vial and get my DNA read? Why can’t I get my own blood drawn without a doctor’s permission? It’s my blood. – Anne Wojcicki
As I laid in the hospital bed I started thinking that I had a show to do. I was hoping the Doctor would put me together so I could do the show. – Ben Vereen
I’ve never bought this idea of taking a therapeutic distance. If I see a student or house staff cry, I take great faith in that. That’s a great person; they’re going to be a great doctor. – Abraham Verghese
My writing flows out of my doctorhood. They are not separate things. They are one. I think the foremost connection between being a doctor and being a writer is the great privilege of having an intimate view of one’s fellow humans, the privilege of being there and helping other people at their most vulnerable moments. – Abraham Verghese
My dream is to be a doctor. I’m almost working in a laboratory, because I’m trying new techniques, new directions and fabrics, new weaving. – Alber Elbaz
I went in for a checkup, and when my doctor had me stand on the scale, even he was surprised. Seeing that number (which I’ll take to the grave) was a turning point. I knew I needed to make a change. I cut out white flour and starches and worked with my doctor and a nutritionist to develop a plan. – Adam Richman
There’s this old saying that, if you aren’t particularly gifted in natural sciences, if you don’t want to become a teacher or pastor or doctor, and don’t know what else to do, then you become a lawyer. But I’ve never regretted it. – Bernhard Schlink
I believe I can do anything. If I decide I want to be a doctor tomorrow, I’m going to be a doctor. – Amy Jo Johnson
This is ridiculous, I mean, wholly ridiculous. It never did any child any harm to have something that was a tiny bit above them anyway, and I claim that anyone who can follow Doctor Who can follow absolutely anything. – Diana Wynne Jones
It was lovely to do The Knock because I haven’t done anything really significant since Doctor Who. – Colin Baker
I’m training to become a giggle doctor. It’s a kind of hospital clown who changes the atmosphere on the ward and helps recovery. It’s about making patients laugh but also much more. – Nina Conti
I wanted to be a leading man – the black lawyer, the black doctor, the black policeman. – David Alan Grier
My dad was in the military, yeah. He was in the Air Force, and he was a doctor, so he would go places for six months here, and two years there. And I was home-schooled because I played the violin, and I did a lot of competitions. – Felicia Day
You can go to the doctor a million times if you’re feeling down, and get nowhere, but if you go for a run it makes you feel really good. – Gail Porter
The relationship between a manufacturer and his advertising agency is almost as intimate as the relationship between a patient and his doctor. Make sure that you can life happily with your prospective client before you accept his account. – David Ogilvy
When I went back and watched a couple of the older ‘Doctor Who’ episodes, I could see why some people felt the show had been quite sexist. – Daphne Ashbrook
I like medicine. Even if I was selling a million books a year, I would still be a doctor. – Ethan Canin
Hospice means end-of-life care. The admission ticket is a diagnosis from a doctor that you have six months or less to live. – Eleanor Clift
The American doctor, in my opinion, possesses a combination of conservatism and that other quality which has put the United States in the forefront in almost every department of science – that is, an eagerness to know what it is really all about in order that he may not be the one left behind if there is something to it. – Elizabeth Kenny
If not music, I think it would be pretty cool to be an ear, nose and throat doctor. – David Archuleta
Filming ‘Doctor Who’ is so incredibly different to ‘Spooks.’ Near to the surface, there’s quite a silly atmosphere. A lot of the times, you’re on the verge of giggles because it’s so over the top. – Miranda Raison
Even though momentarily I thought about being a doctor, I was always involved in theatre and did a drama degree. I just didn’t have the guts to go, ‘Yes, I’m going to be an actor,’ until I was probably 21. – Elliot Cowan
I can’t wait to work with Peter Capaldi as the next ‘Doctor.’ I know him from old; he’s such a lovely man and will be brilliant in the role. As long as he tones down the Malcolm Tucker swearing. – Neve McIntosh
And I talked to my doctor, and I must admit, you know, I’m sometimes quite renowned for my outbursts and I was just very frustrated, maybe a little frightened. – Elton John
Any veteran can tell you it is already hard enough to see a doctor down at the VA and get the health care they were promised when they signed up to serve this country. – Nick Lampson
My fantasy is, if I wasn’t on ‘Dexter,’ I would move my family to London and work for the BBC on ‘Doctor Who.’ – Manny Coto
