Famous quotes containing the words principal and/or diseases:

    The principal point of cleverness is to know how to value things just as they deserve.
    François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)

    But what is quackery? It is commonly an attempt to cure the diseases of a man by addressing his body alone. There is need of a physician who shall minister to both soul and body at once, that is, to man. Now he falls between two stools.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
