They ought to find out how to vaccinate for love, like smallpox.
I was nauseous and tingly all over. I was either in love or I had smallpox.
Measles and TB evolved from diseases of our cattle, influenza from a disease of pigs, and smallpox possibly from a disease of camels. The Americas had very few native domesticated animal species from which humans could acquire such diseases.
Nature is that lovely lady to whom we owe polio, leprosy, smallpox, syphilis, tuberculosis, cancer.
I think when smallpox was eliminated, the whole world got pretty excited about that because it's just such a dramatic success.
Smallpox is natural; vaccine ain't.
We can't share the earth with pure evil anymore than we can share the earth with smallpox.
Then we should find some artificial inoculation against love, as with smallpox.
I do think the Roman Catholic religion is a disease of the mind which has a particular epidemiology similar to that of a virus. . . Religion is a terrific meme. That's right. But that doesn't make it true and I care about what's true. Smallpox virus is a terrific virus. It does its job magnificently well. That doesn't mean that it's a good thing. It doesn't mean that I don't want to see it stamped out.
Nobody spends any money on smallpox unless they worry about a bio-terrorist recreating it.
We have completely eradicated smallpox; we have almost eradicated polio. That's the miracle of vaccines, which is even greater than that of antibiotics.
If there is love, smallpox scars are as pretty as dimples. I'll love your face no matter what it looks like. Because it's yours.
It's my experience that people are a lot more sympathetic if they can see you hurting, and for the millionth time in my life I wish for measles or smallpox or some other easily understood disease just to make it easier on me and also on them.
