Quote examples
Elisabeth Kubler-Ross
American Psychologist
When I came to this country in 1958, to be a dying patient in a medical hospital was a nightmare. You were put in the last room, furthest away from the nurses' station. You were full of pain, but they wouldn't give you morphine. Nobody told you that you were full of cancer and that it was understandable that you had pain and needed medication.
Quote examples
Polly Toynbee
English Journalist
My mother begged doctors to end her life. She was beyond the physical ability to swallow enough of the weak morphine pills she had around her. When she knew she was dying I promised to make sure she could go at a time of her choosing, but it was impossible. I couldn't help.
Quote examples
Carl Jung
Swiss Psychologist
Every form of addiction is bad, no matter whether the narcotic be alcohol or morphine or idealism.
Quote examples
Alex Campbell
Canadian Politician
My death will be caused by morphine, which I have deliberately taken with suicidal intent.

Derek Jarman
British Director
Pain can be alleviated by morphine but the pain of social ostracism cannot be taken away.
