Medicine

Medicine is not only a science; it is also an art. It does not consist of compounding pills and plasters; it deals with the very processes of life, which must be understood before they may be guided.
- Paracelsus, Philipus A.

Best Quotes about Medicine

1.
There are three subjects on which the knowledge of the medical profession in general is woefully weak; they are manners, morals, and medicine.
Lieberman, Gerald F.

2.
Like a celestial chaperon, the placebo leads us through the uncharted passageways of mind and gives us a greater sense of infinity than if we were to spend all our days with our eyes hypnotically glued to the giant telescope at Mt. Palomar. What we see ultimately is that the placebo isn't really necessary and that the mind can carry out its difficult and wondrous missions unprompted by little pills. The placebo is only a tangible object made essential in an age that feels uncomfortable with intangibles, an age that prefers to think that every inner effect must have an outer cause. Since it has size and shape and can be hand-held, the placebo satisfies the contemporary craving for visible mechanisms and visible answers . The placebo, then, is an emissary between the will to live and the body.
Cousins, Norman

3.
God help the patient.
Mansfield, Lord

4.
She saw she had fallen into the hands of one of those doctors who have strayed too far from apparent in the direction of the soul.
West, Rebecca

5.
Mankind has survived all catastrophes. It will also survive modern medicine.
Kocher, Gerhard

6.
While Homeopathy itself is a perfect science, its truth is only partially known. The truth itself relates to the Divine, the knowledge relates to man.
Kent, James Tyler

7.
The orthodox school has witnessed for centuries that nature itself has never once cured any existing disease with another dissimilar one, however intense. What must we think of this school, which nevertheless has continued to treat chronic diseases allopathically, with medicines and formulas that can only cause a disease condition --God knows which --dissimilar to the one being treated? Even if these physicians have not hitherto observed nature attentively enough, the miserable results of their treatment should have taught them that they were on the wrong road.
Hahnemann, Samuel

8.
From year to year, it is more obvious: the goal of medicine is not health but thefurtherextension of the health system.
Kocher, Gerhard

9.
Medicines are only fit for old people.
Bonaparte, Napoleon

10.
To array a man's will against his sickness is the supreme art of medicine.
Beecher, Henry Ward

11.
Formerly, when religion was strong and science weak, men mistook magic for medicine; now, when science is strong and religion weak, men mistake medicine for magic.
Thomas Szasz

12.
In medicine sins of commission are mortal, sins of omission are venial.
Tronchin, Theodore

13.
They had me on the operating table all day. They looked into my stomach, my gall bladder, they examined everything inside of me. Know what they decided? I need glasses.
Lewis, Joe E.

14.
It is medicine, not scenery, for which a sick man must go searching.
Seneca

15.
You can't treat a car like a patient. A car needs love.
Kocher, Gerhard

16.
Many of us will die for science without knowing it.
Kocher, Gerhard

17.
Some remedies are worse than the disease.
Syrus, Publilius

18.
Since the regimentation of Medicine by quacks and medical gangsters in control of the American Medical Association, this organization has become one of the most vicious rackets in the country.
Loffler, Charles Lyman

19.
Chemotherapy and radiotherapy will make the ancient method of drilling holes in a patient's head to permit the escape of demons look relatively advanced. Toxic chemotherapy is a hoax. The doctors who use it are guilty of pre-meditated murder, and the use of cobalt and other methods of cancer treatment popular today effectively closes the door on cure.
Krebs, Jr., Ernst T.

20.
The very first requirement in a hospital is that it should do the sick no harm.
Nightingale, Florence

21.
The best medicine I know for rheumatism is to thank the Lord it ain't the gout.
Billings, Josh

22.
Sleep is better than medicine.

23.
I was under medication when I made the decision not to burn the tapes.
Nixon, Richard M.

24.
Don't live in a town where there are no doctors.
Jewish Proverb

25.
Desperate maladies require desperate remedies.
Proverb, French

26.
The whole imposing edifice of modern medicine is like the celebrated tower of Pisa --slightly off balance.
Charles, Prince Of Wales

27.
Quackery has no friend like gullibility.
Proverb

28.
Modern medicine is a negation of health. It isn't organized to serve human health, but only itself, as an institution. It makes more people sick than it heals.
Illich, Ivan

29.
What medicines do not heal, the lance will; what the lance does not heal, fire will.
Hippocrates

30.
One of the first duties of the physician is to educate the masses not to take medicine.
Sir William Osler

31.
Do not forget: in medicine, there are more important things than life and death: dollars and cents.
Kocher, Gerhard

32.
A little rebellion now and then... is a medicine necessary for the sound health of government.
Jefferson, Thomas

33.
Medicine knows no limits, especially not its own.
Kocher, Gerhard

34.
We have to ask ourselves whether medicine is to remain a humanitarian and respected profession or a new but depersonalized science in the service of prolonging life rather than diminishing human suffering.
KuBler-Ross, Elisabeth

35.
Walking is a man's best medicine.
Hippocrates

36.
I firmly believe that if the whole material medical could be sunk to the bottom of the sea, it would be all the better for mankind, and all the worse for the sea.
Holmes, Oliver Wendell

37.
He who lives by medical prescriptions lives miserably.
Proverb

38.
Injections are the best thing ever invented for feeding doctors.
Marquez, Gabriel Garcia

39.
I was not long since in a company where I was not who of my fraternity brought news of a kind of pills, by true account, composed of a hundred and odd several ingredients; whereat we laughed very heartily, and made ourselves good sport; for what rock so hard were able to resist the shock or withstand the force of so thick and numerous a battery?
Montaigne, Michel Eyquem De

40.
Water, air, and cleanness are the chief articles in my pharmacy.
Bonaparte, Napoleon

41.
Half of the modern drugs could well be thrown out of the window, except that the birds might eat them.
Dr. Martin Henry Fischer

42.
One has a greater sense of intellectual degradation after an interview with a doctor than from any human experience.
Alice James

43.
Vaccination is the medical sacrament corresponding to baptism.
Butler, Samuel

44.
To live by medicine is to live horribly.
Linnaeus, Carolus

45.
Orthodox medicine has not found an answer to your complaint. However, luckily for you, I happen to be a quack.
Richter cartoon caption

46.
I am dying from the treatment of too many physicians.
Alexander The Great

47.
Let's not kid ourselves. Whatever we diagnose, most patients, if they don't die, get well by themselves. Our job is mainly to try to make them feel better; do no harm.
Diane Frolov and Andrew Schneider

48.
The Lord hath created medicines out of the earth: and he that is wise will not abhor them. Was not the water made sweet with wood, that the virtue thereof might be known? [Ecclesiasticus 38:4-5]
Bible

49.
Medicine heals doubts as well as diseases.
Marx, Karl
