    “The ceaseless labor of your life is to build the house of death.”
    —Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)

    “At this moment, who would not remain persuaded that these women were virtuous? Are they not the flower of the country? Are they all not fresh, ravishing, intoxicating with beauty, youth, life and love? To believe in their virtue is a kind of social religion; because they are the world’s ornament and the glory of France.”
    —HonorĂ© De Balzac (1799–1850)

    “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.”
    —Hippocrates (c. 460–c. 370 B.C.)
