More quotes by Hippocrates
The natural force within each of us is that greatest healer of all.
Hippocrates
Your foods shall be your 'remedies,' and your 'remedies' shall be your foods.
Hippocrates
When in sickness, look to the spine first.
Hippocrates
Declare the past, diagnose the present, foretell the future.
Hippocrates
Natural forces within us are the true healers of disease.
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
The human soul develops up to the time of death.
Hippocrates
Where prayer, amulets and incantations work it is only a manifestation of the patient's belief.
Hippocrates
Opposites are cures for opposites.
Hippocrates
Just as food causes chronic disease, it can be the most powerful cure
Hippocrates
About medications that are drunk or applied to wounds it is worth learning from everyone for people do not discover these by reasoning but by chance, and experts not more than laymen.
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 also maintain that clear knowledge of natural science must be acquired, in the first instance, through mastery of medicine alone.
Hippocrates
All disease starts in the gut.
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
I am about to discuss the disease called 'sacred'. It is not, in my opinion, any more divine or more sacred that other diseases, but has a natural cause, and its supposed divine origin is due to men's inexperience, and to their wonder at its peculiar character.
Hippocrates
Old people have fewer diseases than the young, but their diseases never leave them.
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
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
Cure sometimes, treat often, comfort always.
Hippocrates
