Paracelsus
Many have said of Alchemy, that it is for the making of gold and silver. For me such is not the aim, but to consider only what virtue and power may lie in medicines.
Paracelsus
The ultimate cause of human disease is the consequence of our transgression of the universal laws of life.

Whether wine is a nourishment, medicine or poison is a matter of dosage
