...become supermen, the more we become inhuman." Later, Schweitzer mentioned his plan to put all of his prize money ($33,149) into his hospital establishment at Lambaréné, the jungle town that is his home. But, said selfless Albert Schweitzer, more money is still needed. That was hint enough for Oslo's newspapers. In three days of appeals, they raised nearly $35,000 from Norwegian donors...
...loss of the host's immunity or an increase in microbial virulence. Dubos suggests that receptivity to infection in the first place may depend on bodily mechanisms entirely different from those which regulate other aspects of physical wellbeing, such as growth. So far, Dubos can only hint at what these mechanisms may be. One clue lies in acute starvation, as distinguished from long-range underfeeding. If Dubos takes well-fed mice, but omits their feedings for 30 hours (not long enough to cause obvious physical distress), they become suddenly susceptible to artificial infections, which prove rapidly fatal.

...country's enemies, from Hiss to Ho Chi Minh, could be lumped under the heading of dogs in the manager. Although the Administration's critics usually bay at the moon, for those recurring embarrassments, like Senator McCarthy, there's the old wheeze about letting sleeping dogs lie. Any hint of co-existing with Russia could be neatly scotched by saying that such a move would be lying down together like dogs. Or, in reflecting on the thankless job of those who are trying to rid the government of 20 years of treason, he could say that...
