Certainly! Florence Nightingale, a pioneer in modern nursing, left behind a wealth of wisdom through her words. Here are some of her notable quotes:
1. ”I attribute my success to this: I never gave or took any excuse.”
2. ”Live life when you have it. Life is a splendid gift – there is nothing small about it.”
3. ”I think one’s feelings waste themselves in words; they ought all to be distilled into actions which bring results.”
4. ”How very little can be done under the spirit of fear.”
5. ”The martyr sacrifices themselves entirely in vain. Or rather not in vain; for they make the selfish more selfish, the lazy more lazy, the narrow narrower.”
6. ”Rather, ten times, die in the surf, heralding the way to a new world, than stand idly on the shore.”
7. ”The very first requirement in a hospital is that it should do the sick no harm.”
8. ”I am of certain convinced that the greatest heroes are those who do their duty in the daily grind of domestic affairs whilst the world whirls as a maddening dreidel.”
9. ”Were there none who were discontented with what they have, the world would never reach anything better.”
10. ”It may seem a strange principle to enunciate as the very first requirement in a hospital that it should do the sick no harm.”
These quotes reflect her dedication to nursing, her belief in action over words, and her commitment to improving healthcare practices.
