Famous quotes containing the word medicine:

    “No medicine in the world can do thee good;
    In thee there is not half an hour’s life.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “The only medicine for suffering, crime, and all the other woes of mankind, is wisdom.”
    —Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–95)

    “For this invention of yours will produce forgetfulness in the minds of those who learn it, by causing them to neglect their memory, inasmuch as, from their confidence in writing, they will recollect by the external aid of foreign symbols, and not by the internal use of their own faculties. Your discovery, therefore, is a medicine not for memory, but for recollection,—for recalling to, not for keeping in mind.”
    —Plato (c. 427–347 B.C.)
