More quotes by Hippocrates
Let your food be your medicine, and your medicine be your food.
Hippocrates
I will not give to a woman a pessary to cause abortion.
Hippocrates
The body of man has in itself blood, phlegm, yellow bile and black bile these make up the nature of this body, and through these he feels pain or enjoys health. Now he enjoys the most perfect health when these elements are duly proportioned to one another in respect of compounding, power and bulk, and when they are perfectly mingled.
Hippocrates
Physicians are many in title but very few in reality.
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
Some patients, though conscious that their condition is perilous, recover their health simply through their contentment with the goodness of the physician.
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
He who does not understand astrology is not a doctor but a fool.
Hippocrates
When in sickness, look to the spine first.
Hippocrates
That which is used - develops. That which is not used wastes away.
Hippocrates
Walking is a man's best medicine.
Hippocrates
There are in fact two things, science and opinion. The former begets knowledge, the latter ignorance.
Hippocrates
Idleness and lack of occupation tend - nay are dragged - towards evil.
Hippocrates
Eunuchs do not take the gout, nor become bald.
Hippocrates
The dignity of a physician requires that he should look healthy, and as plump as nature intended him to be for the common crowd consider those who are not of this excellent bodily condition to be unable to take care of themselves.
Hippocrates
What I may see or hear in the course of the treatment or even outside of the treatment in regard to the life of men, which on no account one must spread abroad, I will keep to myself holding such things shameful to be spoken about.
Hippocrates
All disease starts in the gut.
Hippocrates
Sometimes give your services for nothing.
Hippocrates
Where prayer, amulets and incantations work it is only a manifestation of the patient's belief.
Hippocrates
The natural force within each of us is that greatest healer of all.
Hippocrates
