More quotes by Rudolf Virchow
Between animal and human medicine, there is no dividing line-nor should there be.
Rudolf Virchow
If popular medicine gave the people wisdom as well as knowledge, it would be the best protection for scientific and well-trained physicians.
Rudolf Virchow
Belief begins where science leaves off and ends where science begins.
Rudolf Virchow
Belief has no place as far as science reaches, and may be first permitted to take root where science stops.
Rudolf Virchow
Only those who regard healing as the ultimate goal of their efforts can, therefore, be designated as physicians.
Rudolf Virchow
Disease is not something personal and special, but only a manifestation of life under modified conditions, operating according to the same laws as apply to the living body at all times, from the first moment until death.
Rudolf Virchow
The physicians are the natural attorneys of the poor, and the social problems should largely be solved by them.
Rudolf Virchow
If we would serve science, we must extend her limits, not only as far as our own knowledge is concerned, but in the estimation of others.
Rudolf Virchow
The task of science, therefore, is not to attack the objects of faith, but to establish the limits beyond which knowledge cannot go and found a unified self-consciousness within these limits.
Rudolf Virchow
The task of science is to stake out the limits of the knowable, and to center consciousness within them.
Rudolf Virchow
It is the curse of humanity that it learns to tolerate even the most horrible situations by habituation, that it forgets the most shameful happenings in the daily shame of events, and that it can hardly understand when individuals aim to destroy this infamy.
Rudolf Virchow
Belief cannot be reckoned with in terms of science, for science and faith are mutually exclusive.
Rudolf Virchow
Life itself is but the expression of a sum of phenomena, each of which follows the ordinary physical and chemical laws.
Rudolf Virchow
There can be no scientific dispute with respect to faith, for science and faith exclude one another.
Rudolf Virchow
