Poison Jam

Famous quotes containing the words poison and/or jam:

“I will use treatment to help the sick according to my ability and judgment, but never with a view to injury and wrongdoing. Neither will I administer a poison to anybody when asked to do so, nor will I suggest such a course. Similarly, I will not give to a woman a pessary to cause abortion. I will keep pure and holy both my life and my art.”

“If you hadn’t been in such a hurry to cremate me, I wouldn’t be in the jam I’m in now.”
