The practice of medicine will be very much as you make it - to one a worry, a care, a perpetual annoyance; to another, a daily job and a life of as much happiness and usefulness as can well fall to the lot of man, because it is a life of self-sacrifice and of countless opportunities to comfort and help the weak-hearted, and to raise up those that fall.

Medicine, the only profession that labours incessantly to destroy the reason for its existence.

By medicine life may be prolonged, yet death will seize the doctor too.

Sickness may be the solemn occasion of God's intervention in a person's life.

To live long, live slowly.

Three rules: I do not eat too much; I do not worry too much; and, if I do my best, I believe that what happens, happens for the best.

We have not lost faith, but we have transferred it from God to the medical profession.

Do what you will, the time will probably come when you will want the advice of a PHYSICIAN. ..Choose a sensible man, personally agreeable to yourself, if possible, whom you know to have had a good education, to stand well with the members of his own profession, and of whom other scientific men, as well as physicians, speak respectfully...Once having chosen your medical adviser, be slow to leave him, except for good cause. He has served an apprenticeship to your constitution.

Many ordinary illnesses are nothing but the expression of a serious dissatisfaction with life.

Nothing is more fatal to health than over care of it.

PHYSICIAN, n. One upon whom we set our hopes when ill and our dogs when well.

I am pretty sure that, if you will be quite honest, you will admit that a good rousing sneeze, one that tears open your collar and throws your hair into your eyes, is really one of life's sensational pleasures.

Be careful about reading health books. You may die of a misprint.

Health is like money, we never have a true idea of its value until we lose it.
