More quotes by Paracelsus
The human body is vapor materialized by sunshine mixed with the life of the stars.
Paracelsus
It should be forbidden and severely punished to remove cancer by cutting, burning, cautery, and other fiendish tortures. It is from nature that the disease comes, and from nature comes the cure, not from physicians.
Paracelsus
The ultimate cause of human disease is the consequence of our transgression of the universal laws of life.
Paracelsus
Consider that we shouldn't call our brother a fool, since we don't know ourselves what we are.
Paracelsus
When a man undertakes to create something, he establishes a new heaven, as it were, and from it the work that he desires to create flows into him... For such is the immensity of man that he is greater than heaven and earth.
Paracelsus
The main reason for healing is love.
Paracelsus
If we want to make a statement about a man's nature on the basis of his physiognomy, we must take everything into account it is in his distress that a man is tested, for then his nature is revealed.
Paracelsus
This is alchemy, and this is the office of Vulcan he is the apothecary and chemist of the medicine.
Paracelsus
Let no one who can be his own belong to another.
Paracelsus
Anyone who imagines that all fruits ripen at the same time as the strawberries knows nothing about grapes.
Paracelsus
The dreams which reveal the supernatural are promises and messages that God sends us directly: they are nothing but His angels, His ministering spirits , who usually appear to us when we are in a great predicament.
Paracelsus
Nothing is hidden so much that it wouldn't be revealed through its fruit.
Paracelsus
I am different. Let this not upset you
Paracelsus
Man is ill because he is never still.
Paracelsus
Know that the philosopher has power over the stars, and not the stars over him.
Paracelsus
Time is a brisk wind, for each hour it brings something new.
Paracelsus
Fasting is the greatest remedy-- the physician within.
Paracelsus
The universities do not teach all things ... so a doctor must seek out old wives, gypsies, sorcerers, wandering tribes, old robbers, and such outlaws and take lessons from them. A doctor must be a traveller . . . Knowledge is experience.
Paracelsus
Man is a microcosm, or a little world, because he is an extract from all the stars and planets of the whole firmament, from the earth and the elements and so he is their quintessence.
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
