I avow myself the partisan of truth alone Picture Quote #1

I appeal to your own eyes as my witness and judge Picture Quote #1

All we know is still infinitely less than all that remains unknown Picture Quote #1

Doctrine once sown strikes deep its root, and respect for antiquity influences all men Picture Quote #1

Nature is nowhere accustomed more openly to display her secret mysteries than in cases where she shows tracings of her workings apart from the beaten paths; nor is there any better way to advance the proper practice of medicine than to give our minds to the discovery of the usual law of nature, by careful investigation of cases of rarer forms of disease Picture Quote #1

There is a lust in man no charm can tame: Of loudly publishing his neighbor’s shame: On eagles wings immortal scandals fly, while virtuous actions are born and die Picture Quote #1

It is, however, an argument of no weight to say that natural bodies are first generated or compounded out of those things into which they are at the last broken down or dissolved Picture Quote #1

Only by understanding the wisdom of natural foods and their effects on the body, shall we attain mastery of disease and pain, which shall enable us to relieve the burden of mankind Picture Quote #1

This organ deserves to be styled the starting point of life and the sun of our microcosm just as much as the sun deserves to be styled the heart of the world. For it is by the heart’s vigorous beat that the blood is moved, perfected, activated, and protected from injury and coagulation. The heart is the tutelary deity of the body, the basis of life, the source of all things, carrying out its function of nourishing, warming, and activating body as a whole. But we shall more fittingly speak of these matters when we consider the final cause of this kind of movement Picture Quote #1

Moderate labor of the body conduces to the preservation of health, and cares many initial diseases Picture Quote #1

The heart is the household divinity which, discharging its function, nourishes, cherishes, quickens the whole body, and is indeed the foundation of life, the source of all action Picture Quote #1

Memory cannot exist without endurance of the things perceived, and the thing perceived cannot remain where it has never been Picture Quote #1

As art is a habit with reference to things to be done, so is science a habit in respect to things to be known Picture Quote #1

The heart of animals is the foundation of their life, the sovereign of everything within them, the sun of their microcosm, that upon which all growth depends, from which all power proceeds Picture Quote #1
