Candide: Or Optimism"All is for the best in the best of all possible worlds" It was the indifferent shrug and callous inertia that this "optimism" concealed which so angered Voltaire, who found the "all for the best" approach a patently inadequate response to suffering, to natural disasters, not to mention the questions of illness and man made war. Moreover, as the rebel whose satiric genius had earned him not only international acclaim, but two stays in the Bastille,
"All is for the best in the best of all possible worlds" It was the indifferent shrug and callous inertia that this "optimism" concealed which so angered Voltaire, who found the "all for the best" approach a patently inadequate response to suffering, to natural disasters, not to mention the questions of illness and man-made war. Moreover, as the rebel whose satiric genius had earned him not only international acclaim, but two stays in the Bastille, flogging, and exile, Voltaire knew personally what suffering entailed. In Candide he whisks his young hero and friends through a ludicrous variety of tortures, tragedies, and a reversal of fortune, in the company of Pangloss, a "metaphysico-theologo-comolo-nigologist" of unflinching optimism. The result is one of the glories of eighteenth-century satire.For more than sixty-five years, Penguin has been the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world.

Works and safe!
Size: 5 Quart, Unit Count: 1.0
Good sharps container. Fits typical diabetic syringes perfectly. It also fits zepbound auto-injection pens, but they are a little more difficult to cram into the opening so I took off a star for that.

Excellent size
Excellent for prescription needle disposal. The containers provided by my pharmacy are too small and don't hold all of my used prescription supplies. Lid closes easily and keeps everyone safe from accidental insulin injections!

XS fit well 5’3” 105lbs.
Size: X-Small, Color: Ceil Blue
Ordered these in XS. I’m 5’3” 105lbs and always buy pants in petite length. I’m around a 26” waist. The drawstring makes the pants easily adjustable and the length is a little long but will be fine with thicker sneakers on. Will be keeping! And I love the neon orange drawstring.

Fit/Feel
Size: X-Small, Color: Navy
I have ordered other medline scrubs from other sellers and these particular pants are by far the best fit and the best feel. The quality of this fabric is not only extremely comfortable, but also makes the pants fall/fit differently around the hips and waistline. By far the best medline scrubs I have ever bought. Now I'm trying to find the exact match for the tops. For others looking to buy medline scrubs: I have a very athletic body type, so hospital grade scrubs fit me best, and that's why I choose medline. Others such as grey's anatomy and the like tend to be too snug around my hips and thighs and look unprofessional. So keep that in mind if you're not the athletic body type or if hospital surgical scrubs don't fit your style
