There are two reasons for drinking wine...when you are thirsty, to cure it; the other, when you are not thirsty, to prevent it... prevention is better than cure.

Thomas Love Peacock

Prevention is better than cure.

Desiderius Erasmus

If crime is going down, you shouldn't be increasing resources for crime prevention. Or you should be taking note of what has worked and concentrate the crime-prevention methods on policies that have a track record of success.

Steven Pinker

Nowhere is it more true that "prevention is better than cure," than in the case of Parasitic Diseases.

Rudolf Leuckart

I can only encourage everyone to take a close look at their practices. Prevention is always better than cure.

Neelie Kroes

Since the reduction of risk factors is the scientific basis for primary prevention, the World Health Organization promotes the development of an integrated strategy for prevention of several diseases, rather than focusing on individual ones.

Gro Harlem Brundtland

We may never understand illnesses such as cancer. In fact, we may never cure it. But an ounce of prevention is worth more than a million pounds of cure.

David Agus

Rather than following through on the proven crime and violence prevention techniques that work, we are back to tough-talking sound byte policies that have been proven to not only fail to reduce crime but actually increase crime, waste taxpayers' money and discriminate against minorities.

Bobby Scott

Punishment is but legalized crime. In a society built on prevention, rather than retaliation, there would be very little crime. The few exceptions will be treated medically, as of unsound mind and body.

Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj

If you want to deal with an epidemic - crime or health - the smartest and most effective and cheapest way to deal with it is prevention first.

Kamala Harris

Knife crime isn't an issue that's going to go away just because of repression and police action. Of course we need to support the forces, but it's linked to prevention, and prevention often comes through education.

Vincent Kompany

Our system of mass incarceration is better understood as a system of racial and social control than a system of crime prevention or control.

Michelle Alexander

We should demand the enactment of the Prevention and Public Health Trust Fund, and commit as a nation to the prevention of diseases. America cannot afford to do less.

Margaret Cuomo

My biggest challenge is to educate the American people, to make access to health care available for all, and to make sure that prevention plays a big part in health care. In the case of guns, prevention means we prevent homicides and devastating, expensive gun injuries by preventing those who shouldn't have guns from getting their hands on guns.

Joycelyn Elders

You have to get the balance right, especially with public health, so that you take the measures that benefit the public's health but without causing people to resent you so that you actually don't cure the ill that you seek to cure.

Anna Soubry

I think the Scandinavian health systems are better when it comes to preventative care than the German system, because in the Scandinavian systems, the government is really more active in defining treatment, goals and defining health priorities. The German system is a competitive system with little government intervention. The price for this is that the government cannot set a health agenda. And the Scandinavian systems have little competition, so you often do have waiting lists. But on the other hand, you then have the government which can push for prevention.

Karl Lauterbach
