More quotes by 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
From time immemorial artistic insights have been revealed to artists in their sleep and in dreams, so that at all times they ardently desired them.
Paracelsus
The beginning of wisdom is the beginning of supernatural power.
Paracelsus
We do not know it because we are fooling away our time with outward and perishing things, and are asleep in regard to that which is real within ourself.
Paracelsus
The dose makes the poison.
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
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 art of medicine has its roots in the heart.
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
Determined will is the beginning of all magical operations. It is because men do not perfectly imagine and believe the result, that the (occult) arts are so uncertain, while they might be perfectly certain.
Paracelsus
Be not another, if you can be yourself.
Paracelsus
Man is ill because he is never still.
Paracelsus
He who knows nothing, loves nothing. He who can do nothing understands nothing. He who understands nothing is worthless.
Paracelsus
In every human being there is a special heaven, whole and unbroken.
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
Nothing is hidden so much that it wouldn't be revealed through its fruit.
Paracelsus
Time is a brisk wind, for each hour it brings something new... but who can understand and measure its sharp breath, its mystery and its design?
Paracelsus
Medicine rests upon four pillars - philosophy, astronomy, alchemy, and ethics.
