8658	For there was never yet philosopher/ That could endure the toothache patiently [Shakespeare]
	Full Idea: For there was never yet philosopher/ That could endure the toothache patiently.
	From: William Shakespeare (Much Ado About Nothing [1600], V.i)
	A reaction: You can't argue with that. I do think that people who have studied philosophy at length are more likely to be 'philosophical' when faced with human misery, but only up to a point.
