-Thomas Edison
"In Nature's battle against disease the physician is but the helper, who furnishes Nature with weapons, the apothecary is but the smith who forges them. The business of the physician is, therefore, to give Nature what she needs for her battle. Nature is the physician."
-Paracelsus
"Volumes are now written and spoken about the effect of the mind upon the body... I wish a little more was thought of the effect of the body on the mind."
-Florence Nightingale
