More quotes by Hippocrates
Things that are holy are revealed only to men who are holy.
Hippocrates
To do nothing is sometimes a good remedy.
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
A physician without a knowledge of Astrology has no right to call himself a physician.
Hippocrates
Wine is an appropriate article for mankind, both for the healthy body and for the ailing man.
Hippocrates

Hippocrates
Look to the seasons when choosing your cures
Hippocrates
Walking is a man's best medicine.
Hippocrates
It is better not to apply any treatment in cases of occult cancer for if treated (by surgery), the patients die quickly but if not treated, they hold out for a long time.
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
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
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
The patient must combat the disease along with the physician.
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
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
What medicines do not heal, the lance will what the lance does not heal, fire will.
Hippocrates
Declare the past, diagnose the present, foretell the future.
Hippocrates
He who wishes to be a surgeon should go to war.
Hippocrates
Male and female have the power to fuse into one solid, both because both are nourished in both and also because soul is the same thing in all living creatures, although the body of each is different.
Hippocrates
Divine is the task to relieve pain
Hippocrates
