Man becomes weak or ill by accident as a consequence of the lack of resources. Even the most severally ill patients must be treated with the aim of restoring their health.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
One must not forget that recovery is brought about not by the physician, but by the sick man himself. He heals himself, by his own power, exactly as he walks by means of his own power, or eats, or thinks, breathes or sleeps.
Today we see a human population of over 6 billion people, many of whom have serious medical conditions, which either can't be treated or cannot be treated economically.
Increasingly we know that we're going to have multiple medical conditions, and the person who's got the greatest incentive to manage those conditions is the patient him or herself.
There are some who praise a man free from disease; to me no man who is poor seems free from disease but to be constantly sick.
A wise man should consider that health is the greatest of human blessings, and learn how by his own thought to derive benefit from his illnesses.
Whenever a doctor cannot do good, he must be kept from doing harm.
A weak man is just by accident. A strong but non-violent man is unjust by accident.
Health is not valued till sickness comes.
To array a man's will against his sickness is the supreme art of medicine.
The man who does ill must suffer ill.
