More quotes by Paracelsus
Could we but rightly comprehend the mind of man, nothing would be impossible to us upon the earth.
Paracelsus
Thoughts give birth to a creative force that is neither elemental nor sidereal. Thoughts create a new heaven, a new firmament, a new source of energy, from which new arts flow. When a man undertakes to create something, he establishes a new heaven.
Paracelsus

Paracelsus
The spirit is the master imagination the tool, and the body the plastic material ...The power of the imagination is a great factor in medicine. It may produce diseases in man and in animals, and it may cure them ..Ills of the body may be cured by physical remedies or by the power of the spirit acting through the soul.
Paracelsus
Nature also forges man, now a gold man, now a silver man, now a fig man, now a bean man.
Paracelsus
Medicine is not merely a science but an art. The character of the physician may act more powerfully upon the patient than the drugs employed.
Paracelsus
What sense would it make or what would it benfit a physician if he discovered the origin of the diseases but could not cure or alleviate them?
Paracelsus
In every human being there is a special heaven, whole and unbroken.
Paracelsus
I am different. Let this not upset you
Paracelsus
Time is a brisk wind, for each hour it brings something new.
Paracelsus
