Although Alchemy has now fallen into contempt, and is even considered a thing of the past, the physicain should not be influenced by such judgements.PQuote by Paracelsus about science

Medicine is not only a science; it is also an art. It does not consist of compounding pills and plasters; it deals with the very processes of life, which must be understood before they may be guided.PQuote by Paracelsus about science
The physician must give heed to the region in which the patient lives, that is to say, to its type and peculiarities.PQuote by Paracelsus about science
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.PQuote by Paracelsus about science
