-Because these notes record the skillful observations of a trained eye and mind on the fundamental needs of human beings in sickness and in the prevention of sickness, they are to a great degree timeless in their usefulness to the student of nursing in any country in the world.
-Virginia M. Dunbar, Dean, Cornell University
New York Hospital, New York City, 1946
-As one reads these notes one is impressed with the fact that the fundamental needs of the sick and the principles of good care for the well and the ill are the same today as when they were observed by Nightingale over one-hundred-years ago.
-Margaret B. Dolan, Professor and Head,
Dept. of Public Health Nursing, School of Public Health,
Univ. of North Carolina, 1969
-This is the work of genius if ever I saw one; it will, I doubt not, create an Order of Nurses before it has finished its work.
-Harriet Martineau, author of fiction and non-fiction, c. 1860
