“Belief begins where science leaves off and ends where science begins.”

Belief has no place as far as science reaches, and may be first permitted to take root where science stops.

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.

Medical education does not exist to provide students with a way of making a living, but to ensure the health of the community.

The physicians are the natural attorneys of the poor, and the social problems should largely be solved by them.

If popular medicine gave the people wisdom as well as knowledge, it would be the best protection for scientific and well-trained physicians.

There can be no scientific dispute with respect to faith, for science and faith exclude one another.

The body is a cell state in which every cell is a citizen. Disease is merely the conflict of the citizens of the state brought about by the action of external forces.

Science in itself’ is nothing, for it exists only in the human beings who are its bearers. ‘Science for its own sake’ usually means nothing more than science for the sake of the people who happen to be pursuing it.

Life itself is but the expression of a sum of phenomena, each of which follows the ordinary physical and chemical laws.

Laws should be made, not against quacks but against superstition.

Between animal and human medicine, there is no dividing line-nor should there be.

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.

Brevity in writing is the best insurance for its perusal.

The task of science is to stake out the limits of the knowable, and to center consciousness within them.

Imprisoned quacks are always replaced by new ones.

Only those who regard healing as the ultimate goal of their efforts can, therefore, be designated as physicians.

As adults we try to relax from the never-ending quest for reason and order by drinking a little whiskey or smoking whatever works for us, but the wisdom isn’t in the whiskey or the smoke. The wisdom is in the moments when the madness slips away and we remember the basics.

We all have experiences in our lives that change us, and we all learn from people, like my dad, but at the end of the day, it’s only us. And we’re only responsible to make ourselves happy.

Death means my present physical costume ends.

I breathe him in so deep that when he is gone I exhale and taste him again.

Heard you told him that you’d love him ’til the end of time. Now that’s the same thing that you told me.

Now a soft kiss – Aye, by that kiss, I vow an endless bliss.

In my adult life I’ve understood that if I put an enormous amount of love and honesty into something, usually that shows in the end.
