More quotes by Hippocrates
A sensible man ought to think about that well being is the best of human blessings, and find out how by his personal thought to derive profit from his sicknesses.
Hippocrates
Time is that wherein there is opportunity, and opportunity is that wherein there is no great time.
Hippocrates
It is most necessary to know the nature of the spine. One or more vertebrae may or may not go out of place very much and if they do, they are likely to produce serious complications and even death, if not properly adjusted. Many diseases are related to the spine.
Hippocrates
Timidity betrays want of powers, and audacity a want of skill. There are, indeed, two things, knowledge and opinion, of which the one makes its possessor really to know, the other to be ignorant.
Hippocrates
Illnesses do not come upon us out of the blue. They are developed from small daily sins against Nature. When enough sins have accumulated, illnesses will suddenly appear.
Hippocrates
To really know is science to merely believe you know is ignorance.
Hippocrates

Hippocrates
I have clearly recorded this: for one can learn good lessons also from what has been tried but clearly has not succeeded, when it is clear why it has not succeeded.
Hippocrates
A wise man ought to realize that health is his most valuable possession.
Hippocrates
The natural healing force within each one of us is the greatest force in getting well.
Hippocrates
Everyone has a doctor in him or her we just have to help it in its work. The natural healing force within each one of us is the greatest force in getting well. Our food should be our medicine. Our medicine should be our food. But to eat when you are sick, is to feed your sickness.
Hippocrates
He who does not understand astrology is not a doctor but a fool.
Hippocrates
I will not give to a woman a pessary to cause abortion.
Hippocrates
Old people have fewer diseases than the young, but their diseases never leave them.
Hippocrates
Nature itself is the best physician.
Hippocrates
Any man who is intelligent must, on considering that health is of the utmost value to human beings, have the personal understanding necessary to help himself in diseases, and be able to understand and to judge what physicians say and what they administer to his body, being versed in each of these matters to a degree reasonable for a layman.
Hippocrates
Those diseases which medicines do not cure, iron cures those which iron cannot cure, fire cures and those which fire cannot cure, are to be reckoned wholly incurable.
Hippocrates
All parts of the body which have a function, if used in moderation and exercised in labors in which each is accustomed, become thereby healthy, well developed and age more slowly, but if unused they become liable to disease, defective in growth and age quickly.
Hippocrates
For extreme diseases, extreme methods of cure, as to restriction, are most suitable.
Hippocrates
