Famous quotes containing the words science and, science and/or medicine:

    Science and literature are not two things, but two sides of one thing.
    Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–95)

    When science is learned in love, and its powers are wielded by love, they will appear the supplements and continuations of the material creation.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Hygiene is the corruption of medicine by morality. It is impossible to find a hygienest who does not debase his theory of the healthful with a theory of the virtuous.... The true aim of medicine is not to make men virtuous; it is to safeguard and rescue them from the consequences of their vices.
    —H.L. (Henry Lewis)
