“He was different from every other man she knew. He was capable of loving; he was at once a laughing daredevil and a hard-hitting businessman. But most of all, he needed her. Other patients had needed her, but only as a therapist. Blake needed her, the woman she was, because only her personal strengths had enabled her to help him with her trained skills and knowledge. She couldn’t remember anyone ever needing her before.”
Linda Howard, Come Lie with Me

Adele Levine
“Having a limp is okay, probably cool, if you are a desk jockey working from home, but poor publicity if you are a physical therapist.”
Adele Levine, Run, Don't Walk: The Curious and Chaotic Life of a Physical Therapist Inside Walter Reed Army Medical Center
