More quotes by 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
The physician must give heed to the region in which the patient lives, that is to say, to its type and peculiarities.
Paracelsus
All drugs are poisons the benefit depends on the dosage.
Paracelsus
Whether wine is a nourishment, medicine or poison is a matter of dosage
Paracelsus
I am different. Let this not upset you
Paracelsus
The interpretation of dreams is a great art.
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
Nothing is hidden so much that it wouldn't be revealed through its fruit.
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
He who knows nothing, loves nothing. He who can do nothing understands nothing. He who understands nothing is worthless.
Paracelsus
But is not He who created it for the sake of the sick body more than the remedy? And is not He who cures the soul, which is more than the body, greater?
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
Time is a brisk wind, for each hour it brings something new.
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
Could we but rightly comprehend the mind of man, nothing would be impossible to us upon the earth.
Paracelsus
Poison is in everything, and no thing is without poison. The dosage makes it either a poison or a remedy.
Paracelsus
All that man needs for health and healing has been provided by God in nature, the Challenge of science is to find it.
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 human body is vapor materialized by sunshine mixed with the life of the stars.
Paracelsus
The main reason for healing is love.
Paracelsus
