What quote did florance nightingale say?

Answer 1

She said many and here are a few:

# It may seem a strange principle to enunciate as the very first requirement in a Hospital that it should do the sick no harm.

# I can stand out the war with any man.

# I stand at the altar of the murdered men, and, while I live, I fight their cause.

# No man, not even a doctor, ever gives any other definition of what a nurse should be than this -- 'devoted and obedient.' This definition would do just as well for a porter. It might even do for a horse. It would not do for a policeman.

# You ask me why I do not write something.... I think one's feelings waste themselves in words, they ought all to be distilled into actions and into actions which bring results.
