More quotes by Hippocrates
Anyone wishing to study medicine must master the art of massage.
Hippocrates
Life is short, art long, opportunity fleeting, experiment uncertain, and judgment difficult.
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
I will use treatment to help the sick according to my ability and judgment, but never with a view to injury and wrongdoing. Neither will I administer a poison to anybody when asked to do so, nor will I suggest such a course. Similarly, I will not give to a woman a pessary to cause abortion. I will keep pure and holy both my life and my art.
Hippocrates
I will not give to a woman a pessary to cause abortion.
Hippocrates
Natural forces within us are the true healers of disease.
Hippocrates
Physicians are many in title but very few in reality.
Hippocrates
Wherefore the heart and the diaphragm are particularly sensitive, they have nothing to do, however, with the operations of the understanding, but of all these the brain is the cause.
Hippocrates
For where there is love of man, there is also love of the art.
Hippocrates
Let your food be your medicine, and your medicine be your food.
Hippocrates
What medicines do not heal, the lance will what the lance does not heal, fire will.
Hippocrates
Men ought to know that from the brain, and from the brain only, arise our pleasures, joy, laughter and jests, as well as our sorrows, pains, griefs, and tears.
Hippocrates
All disease begins in the gut.
Hippocrates
The chief virtue that language can have is clearness, and nothing detracts from it so much as the use of unfamiliar words.
Hippocrates
To do nothing is sometimes a good remedy.
Hippocrates
And he will manage the cure best who has foreseen what is to happen from the present state of matters.
Hippocrates
Where prayer, amulets and incantations work it is only a manifestation of the patient's belief.
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
I will give no deadly medicine to any one if asked, nor suggest any such counsel and in like manner I will not give to a woman a pessary to produce abortion.
Hippocrates
Silence is not only never thirsty, but also never brings pain or sorrow.
Hippocrates
